💚💚 A huge thank you to The Good Neighbour Café in Highnam💚
Yesterday, Debbie and Kate visited The Good Neighbour Café in Highnam, where Great Oaks Hospice has been chosen as the café's Charity of the Year.
The café selected Great Oaks because of the support we provide through our Pedal for Parkinson’s class, which takes place every Wednesday afternoon at the hospice.
Run entirely by volunteers, The Good Neighbour Café is a fantastic community hub. From the moment we arrived, we received such a warm welcome. The room was full of people enjoying coffee, cake and great conversation, making it clear just how valued the café is within the local community.
We were honoured to accept a cheque for £1,500, raised through the incredible generosity and hard work of everyone involved. This wonderful donation will help us continue supporting local people and their families.
Thank you to everyone at The Good Neighbour Café for your kindness, dedication and support. We are so grateful. 💚
