Pictured is Mary Doyle, PR and Marketing Manager for Hospice with Carole Whitfield from the fundraising team with Neil Withers. Neil presented a cheque for ?2,610, being the proceeds of him running the Liverpool Half Marathon in memory of his friend Ken Williams. Since the cheque presentation another ?80 has been donated.
Neil added: “I chose Hospice having visited my friend Ken and seeing and sensing the value of the help he got from Hospice and all their staff. Sadly he passed away following a short illness.”
“I knew Ken through Crown green bowls, which has a real family community feel to it on the island!”
“I feel quite overwhelmed by the amount of people that donated and the support from Barclays. It really showed how good a cause Hospice is and how well Ken was liked.”
Mary thanked Neil for all his efforts for Hospice.
