Over £10k raised for Primrose Hospice during charity walk

A CHARITY walk has raised more than £10,000 for the Primrose Hospice.

More than 100 big-hearted people, dressed in yellow to celebrate the charity, came together to complete the Memory Walk, through the grounds of the National Trust’s Hanbury Hall.

At the finish line, they were greeted by the team from Thomas Brothers Funeral Directors, who presented every participant – including the four-legged ones – with special medals made from recycled paper embedded with wildflower seeds.

Kelly Wetherall, fundraiser at Primrose Hospice, said: “It was so lovely to see all ages taking part, honouring the memory of their loved ones.

“It may have rained a little, but it did nothing to dampen people’s spirits.

“Watching the sea of yellow through the grounds of Hanbury Hall was quite a sight.”




The group raised a total of £10,017.

Primrose Hospice and Family Support Centre provides compassionate care and support to people living with life-limiting illnesses, as well as to families facing bereavement across North East Worcestershire.
