✨ What a Day! ✨
Last Thursday's Royal Ascot Ladies Day in support of Great Oaks Hospice was a tremendous success, with plenty of glamour, laughter, great company and fantastic racing throughout the day.
A huge thank you to everyone who attended and helped make the event so special. Your support means so much and helps Great Oaks Hospice continue its incredible work in our community.
👏 Special thanks to the team at Bells Hotel and Country Club for the outstanding food served throughout the day, and to all the staff who looked after everyone so brilliantly from start to finish.
🎶 Thank you also to Pete Stead - Award Winning DJ, who kept the dancefloor busy long after the racing had finished and rounded off a wonderful day in style.
📸 Take a look at some of the highlights from the day, including the fabulous outfits, smiling faces and delicious food that everyone enjoyed.
Thank you once again to everyone who came along, supported the event and helped create such a fantastic atmosphere. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!
💚 Supporting Great Oaks Hospice, together.

We are thrilled to have been chosen as the Charity Sponsor at Howick Horse Trials this year, organised by Hannah Matthews.
Held just outside Chepstow, this fantastic event features a three-phase competition taking place across three dates throughout the year and is the only British Eventing competition remaining in Wales.
Great Oaks Hospice has been selected to sponsor one of the cross-country jumps—an exciting opportunity to raise awareness of the vital work we do to support patients and families across our community.
This partnership is especially meaningful for one of our team members, who has a personal connection to the event and has seen first-hand the difference hospice care can make. They are passionate about helping us share that impact with others.
Howick Horse Trials offers a wonderful opportunity to connect with the local community and shine a light on the importance of hospice care.
Our fundraising buckets will be in the Secretary’s Tent, and if you’re attending, we would be incredibly grateful if you’d consider supporting Great Oaks Hospice.
