£35,000 boost for local hospice care
Hospice Care Burnley and Pendle have received more than £35,000 from the Clydesdale and Yorkshire Banks over the last eight years.
That figure is part of the £5m. that the banks have donated to hospices across the country.
As one of Hospice UK’s largest and longest-standing corporate partners, the banks have been working with the charity for eight years, raising an average of £1,712 per day, to provide vital support to patients and their families at over 200 hospices across the UK.
