Leicestershire hospice LOROS is calling on county folk to support their Christmas raffle in memory of Hinckley woman Bethan Spencer.
Following her admission to LOROS in December last year, Bethan sent her husband Neil a text message which read: “I’m at the LOROS hotel, it is amazing!”
It was only due to the care she received at LOROS that Bethan was able to share her last Christmas and 45th birthday at home with her family in Hinckley.
To say thank you to LOROS Neil has decided to tell their story in support of this year’s Christmas raffle.
He also hopes to reassure anyone who finds themselves in a similar position that LOROS is a wonderful place.
He said: “We know what LOROS did for us, we’d recommend anybody to go there.”
Tickets costing £1 each will be on sale from October in all LOROS shops, from the Hospice on Groby Road, Leicester, or by ringing 0116 231 8430, and 18 lucky winners will share a total of £11,100.
Joining in the fun not only offers the chance to win but is also a great way to support the work carried out by LOROS both at the hospice and out in local communities.
Neil said: “My family will be eternally grateful to LOROS and want to do everything we can to support the charity to ensure that other people can enjoy the care that our family received.
“Every £1 ticket bought will help LOROS to continue providing care to people like Bethan and her family across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland, so please join in today.”
