We were delighted to welcome Jane Reed, Principal of Hartlepool Sixth Form College, for a coffee and a catch-up as she prepares to retire from her role next Friday.

Jane has been a wonderful supporter of Alice House Hospice over the years, and we wish her all the very best for the future.

Here she is, kindly helping us announce this week’s £1,000 Alice House Hospice Lottery winner! 🎉💙

Thank you to Joanne and Charlotte from Hospice supporters, ITPS, for delivering a generous donation of goods collected by their staff and colleagues.

These items will be sold in our Hospice shops and used as prizes in our fundraising raffles.
