Sytner drives funds for local hospice

News

11 Dec 2014

In November, Sytner Group at Grove Park visited LOROS to present the local hospice with their Charity of the Year donation.

During the two years they have been fundraising for LOROS they have raised a staggering £3323.23. From directors to employees, everyone has taken the charity to heart and have raised funds by organising a variety of events which included car boot sales, cake sales, selling LOROS raffle tickets and even participating in sporting challenges. Their donations could pay for the cost of a nurse providing specialist care to our patients for almost five weeks and is a wonderful example of how the Sytner Group have helped us to help others!

Nigel Mills said: "The team at Sytner Group are delighted to have worked with LOROS over recent months. Everyone was really motivated to do what they could to help them to continue to deliver their amazing services to our City."

Alex Gamble, Partnership Development Executive at LOROS, invited Nigel, the Group Property Director from Sytner, to take a tour of the Hospice.

Alex said: "I am very grateful to Nigel and everyone at Sytner for their wonderful support during the past two years and I hope his tour of the Hospice provided him with an insight into the ways their donations will have helped.

"The generosity of companies like the Sytner Group enables us to provide local people with essential specialist help regardless of their ethnicity or faith. To keep these services running, we need to raise £4.5 million each year and without donations like this we wouldn't be able to provide our services free of charge to 2,500 patients and their families.

If anyone is interested in building a mutually beneficial partnership with LOROS please contact Alex on 0116 2318431 or alexgamble@loros.co.uk
