Thank You Glennis Wilcox from Shepshed

A colleague of mine at the bank has donated the money she collected by doing our  lottery bonus ball scheme - so Glennis has given £750 to LOROS.  Glennis supports Loros heavily and carries out a lot of charity work, and it is a charity close to her heart after the sad loss of her husband Willy.  She is a remarkable lady and on behalf of all of us - THANK YOU GLENNIS - what a star!  (There will also be a £500 community cashback award to go with this in due course ...... so it's a fantastic amount onto our totals).

LOROS charges no fees for its services, which are available to all local people regardless of their race or creed. The Charity relies upon the generosity and support of individual people, organisations and groups as well as Trusts and the business communitiy of Leicestershire and Rutland in order to continue to fund the service. The Leicestershire and Rutland Hospice is a specialist centre providing skilled nursing and medical care, supported by physiotherapists, occupational therapists and social workers, in an environment that recognises the particular needs of patients and their families. It provides expertise in controlling pain and other distressing symptoms as well as offering emotional, spiritual and social care, which allows patients to live as normal a life as possible. Working with the whole family enables both the patient and the family to cope with the changing situation so that they are able to make best use of the limited time together available to them. LOROS treats patients from the age of eighteen years and upwards.


Please take time to visit their website for further details on what they do, and if you would like to get involved with any fundraising for them - they also run their own lottery so you can get involved in various ways - also visit their many shops - a quarterly quiz is available at £1 per entry and I always try my luck ............ one of these days! :O)
