We recently sponsored Hospices of Hope's Wine Tasting event at the Romanian Cultural Institute.
The evening was a great success and welcomed more than 70 guests to the event. Everyone enjoyed the impressive range of wines that were available to taste and it was great to see so many people in person again!
Where the fundraising went
The evening was to support and develop hospice care in Romania and surrounding countries, to date the event raised over £3,700.
That incredible sum will help care for patients such as David, who has cerebral palsy and epilepsy.
“David loves visiting the hospice at Copaceni, it makes him so happy. All the team care for David like he is their own son – they are so kind and compassionate, like a family to us. I love to bring David here, and to see him smile” – David’s mother
Members of the medical team have a very close relationship with the children and encourage them to enjoy every day despite the many challenges they face. The children are supported by qualified and dedicated staff, they can take part in a range of activities, socialise with other children and receive counselling, physiotherapy and other therapies that improves their quality of life.
