christmas APPEALS 2008
There are currently two appeals running to raise funds for St Raphael's Hospice. Our Annual "Light up a Life" Appeal which enables supporters to make a donation in memory of friends and loved ones. Every individual to whom a donation is dedicated will be remembered at our annual Carol Services when the Christmas Tree lights are turned on, and all their names will be printed in a special commemorative programme distributed at the Carol Service. This year the Appeal has been made on behalf of St Raphael's by Penny Smith, Broadcaster and TV Newsreader at GMTV. Secondly, we have Rachel's Appeal. Staff Nurse Rachel Paine, who works at St Raphael's Hospice explains the work our doctors and nurses do, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks of the year - and invites donations to help this work continue.

Gifts in lieu of celebratory occasions
Birthdays, Anniversaries, Weddings... Now this is truly selfless, but for those who already have everything they might want or need, you may wish to consider asking for donations to the Hospice to be made in Lieu of presents. You may wish to insert the following phrase into the invitations for your special anniversary party...
'In lieu of gifts we would appreciate contributions to St Raphael's Hospice.'
