It is the aim of Great Oaks Hospice to offer care and support to adults with a life limiting illness.
A huge thank you to Mike!
Last night, regular supporter Mike hosted a charity Quiz Night at Upleadon Village Hall—and he managed to fill the room, with 15 teams taking part!
We’re thrilled to share that the evening raised an amazing £500 for Great Oaks Hospice.
A heartfelt thank you to Mike for his continued support and for organising such a fantastic event.
A great time was had by all!
