WITH Christmas shopping sprees fast approaching, Nightingale House Hospice is asking people to spare a thought for the less fortunate.

Staff are appealing for people to buy an extra present or to donate any unwanted gifts for use in their weekly day care raffles or Christmas fair tombola.

Any presents donated will help raise valuable funds towards the specialist palliative care services provided at the hospice.

For more information on how you can help, contact Sandra Monks on (01978) 314 292 or visit the website at www.nightingalehouse.co.uk.
