It is the aim of Great Oaks Hospice to offer care and support to adults with a life limiting illness.
As we journey through the wardrobe towards our magical Narnia Themed Ball at The Speech House Hotel , we'd like to say a heartfelt thank you to LWC Drinks in Hereford for donating our welcome drink.
The generosity of local businesses like yours helps make events like this possible and supports the vital work of our hospice. We are incredibly grateful for your support and partnership.
