The £4million needed to enable the redevelopment, coupled with the ongoing cost of keeping the Hospice constantly operating, makes fundraising a crucial part of the organisation. Around £700,000 a year is needed to meet the running costs of Les Bourgs.

The Hospice is fortunate to have a large support base and regular events such as the Ride and Dine cycle ride organised by the Friends of Les Bourgs, headed by Jack Honeybill. In addition, a new fundraising group has been created to boost proceeds for the rebuild project.  Events so far have included a Final Hour Appeal, Hospice Markets, Reservoir Ramble and afternoon tea, summer market, bingo night, grand quiz, lunch and fashion show. The Hospice is always delighted to hear from anyone who has ideas on potential events or fundraisers and is particularly keen to be considered as the Charity of the Year for corporate supporters or businesses.

 We would be delighted to help support events or supply ideas and help find volunteers.  Contact  Fundraising Administrator Steve Park on 07911 730967 (stevepark@guernsey.net) or stevepark@lesbourgs.com  if you would like a copy of our diary of events or have ideas to help us.
