Help us celebrate a community united since 1985 In July, we launched our hospice history campaign, inviting people to share their memo-ries of Katharine House Hospice over the years. Our founder, Neil Gadsby, set up the official Katharine House charity in 1985 after his daughter, Katharine, sadly died of cancer at the age of 20 years. Your local hospice was named in her memory and thanks to Neil’s determination and the incredible support of local people, the hospice opened its doors in 1991. We’re celebrating how he rallied the community to raise the funds needed to build the hospice and how that support has continued ever since. Go to www.khh.org.uk/khh-memories to find out more and read shared memories. Wanted! Volunteers to help us run our Christmas events smoothly It’s never too early to prepare for Christmas! And we at the hospice are no excep-tion. The run up to Christmas is a hectic time for the fundraising team, with a frenzy of festive events taking place to help raise vital funds to support the incredible work of our hospice. We are only a small team and can’t do this without you. Can you please spare some time and help us coordinate some of our fabulous events and be a special Santa’s Helper? Find out more from early September at: www.khh.org.uk/santas-helpers Digital monthly newsletter – keep up to date with your local hospice Sign up to receive our Katharine House digital monthly newsletter and keep in touch with all our latest news and fundraising events at the hospice. www.khh.org.uk/newsletter
