15T: 01295 758889 E: studio@e-typepress.co.uk www.e-typepress.co.ukComing up at Katharine House It takes a whole community to keep the hospice going, and we have plenty of opportunities coming up to do just that! It’s thanks to your ongoing support that we can continue to care for local people and families when they need us the most. Face the fear this year BRAND NEW EVENT! Take on an adrenaline-pumping bungee jump at this year's Bloxham Steam Rally on 29 June and raise money for Katharine House at the same time. Why not take a minute to make a memory at 160ft? Hurry – the first 50 signs-ups will receive free entry to Bloxham Steam Rally, worth £16! www.khh.org.uk/bungee. Caring for our community Following an incurable diagnosis – whether for yourself or a loved one – it's natural to have questions and want to find out more about what to expect. As part of our mission to support our whole community, we built our End-of-life and Palliative Care (EPiC) Resource Centre and made it available to everyone as a permanent part of our website. If you haven't already seen our Resource Centre, or think someone you know might find it useful, you can find it here: www.khh.org.uk/epic. A big deal We’re so lucky to be supported by so many local businesses. Once again, we have some brilliant sponsorship opportunities for the year ahead. As well as helping support local people, it’s a great way to build your brand and demonstrate your commitment to the community – it really is a win-win! If you work for a local business and would like to get involved, take a look at our sponsorship page here: www.khh.org.uk/sponsorship-opportunities. Community Ambassadors We’re a small team, and until recently we haven’t always been able to attend events and let people know about the hospice and why local support makes so much difference. We are delighted to now have a team of six incredible Community Ambassadors ready and waiting to represent the hospice. If you are hosting a community event or are part of a local group, school or business who would like someone to attend and share about Katharine House, then please get in touch with our fundraising team by emailing fundraising@khh.org.uk. Bake a difference Everyone loves a cuppa and a slice of cake, right? Well, our Care for a Cuppa campaign, which runs all year round, is the perfect excuse to do just that while raising funds for Katharine House. Could you host a coffee morning, cake sale or bake-off event and help us raise some dough for our hospice? We also have lots or resources to help sweeten the deal. . . . Find out more here: www.khh.org.uk/cuppa.
