Communi-tea spirit raises £330

A funeral home in Westbury-on-Trym has raised over £330 for St Peter’s Hospice. 

Colleagues from Co-op Funeralcare in the High Street invited their community to an open day at the funeral home.  

 Attendees were treated to refreshments, including  afternoon tea complete with homemade cakes. There was also a host of games to take part in, including the chance to win a gift hamper through a raffle and a ‘win a prize every time’ tombola. 

Louise Bowers, funeral arranger at Co-op Funeralcare said: “We are delighted to have raised over £330 for St Peter’s Hospice, a charity which is not only close to my heart, but also those of many people in our local community. Lots of families we speak to day-to-day have a personal connection to the charity, so it felt right to give back to a cause that supports people so close to home. 

 “Here at Co-op Funeralcare, we’re always looking for ways in which we can support brilliant charities like St Peter’s Hospice within our local communities. As a member-owned business, Co-op is keen to show the community that they can reach out to us for support. We hope by hosting events like this, we’re able to let even more people know that our doors are always open.  Thank you to everyone who attended.”
