St Richard s Hospice Tricia Cavell, fundraising director at St Richard’s Hospice, said: “The pandemic has taken its toll on our fundraising in 2020. Many of our usual events were postponed, and our shops temporarily closed for both lockdowns. “However, we are hugely grateful to our community for their support through what has been a very challenging year for everyone. “Over the festive season, there are many ways to support St Richard’s. From making a donation, to registering your Christmas tree for collection, or taking part in one of our virtual challenges – there’s plenty to get involved in.
