Market Harborough Building Society recently presented Cransley Hospice with a cheque for £5,830.88 raised from the interest from charity savings accounts.

Opening a MHBS Cransley Hospice Savings Account will help Cransley Hospice because 1% of the average balance in the account will be donated to the hospice every year. This donation will be made by the Society, so it will NOT reduce the balance on your account or the amount of interest you are paid.

If you would like more details about how to open an account either visit www.mhbs.co.uk or, alternatively, contact the Fundraising Offi ce on 01536 527407 and ask for a leafl et.

Cransley Hospice Coffee Shop

Cransley Hospice Coffee Shop on Horsemarket, Kettering, NN16 0DH, is open Monday to Friday 10am - 4pm and Saturday 9.30am - 3.30pm, serving delicious cakes and snacks. Most of the scrummy cakes on sale are provided by volunteer bakers, so all home made and individual every day. In this lovely atmosphere you can sit and enjoy your refreshments and the prices are extremely reasonable.

You can browse the free newspapers provided or the books available for donation. Check out the art display each month by local artists with work available for purchase. The Coffee Shop is staffed by a lovely team of volunteers and with three paid members of staff who look forward to seeing you soon.

Request for unwanted items

Our stock of goodies suitable to be used in raffl es, tombolas etc. is very depleted at the
moment. If you have any unwanted gifts or unused items that you would like to donate to Cransley Hospice, we are always grateful to receive them to use in our fundraising endeavours.

Our Christmas Basket Initiative

This is a great way for your workplace or business to fundraise for the Hospice, we provide a Christmas Hamper or just a general goody basket for you to raffl e off by selling numbered squares.

Please contact the Fundraising Offi ce if you would like to take part in this venture,
or indeed if you have any goods to donate which could be used in hampers. We would love to hear from you.

Thanking you for your continued support
