Ashberry Homes builds for Beaumond House Community Hospice’s Bright Blue campaign

Housebuilder Ashberry Homes has made a £500 donation to Beaumond House Community Hospice’s Bright Blue campaign.

The Bright Blue campaign raises awareness about the hospice’s work.

Cathy Lowe, Beaumond House’s fundraising and marketing manager, said: “This is the fifth year that we have been fundraising and raising awareness using the Bright Blue Campaign, and this year has been the most challenging.

“It costs over £1m a year to run the hospice and we get about £480,000 of that from the clinical commissioning group, so that still leaves over £600,000 that we have to raise ourselves, which is why donations like this are so important to us.”

Ashberry Homes is building two, three and four-bedroom houses at Middlebeck.

Sales manager Rachael Gatehouse, said: “Beaumond House Community Hospice does such tremendous work for people in and around Newark.”
