Schools partnerships

Schools’ supporter stories

Find out what some of the schools who have supported us over the years have gained from their generosity and the creative ideas they have put into fundraising.

We are extremely grateful for all the support we receive from our school partnerships and we simply wouldn’t exist without all their creativity and enthusiasm.

To celebrate the support we receive, we want to share some stories about how local schools fundraise for the hospice and provide vital support. We hope that these stories will inspire your fundraising journey and show that there are many different ways in which your school can support your local hospice.
