THE Hospice 2000 flower is nearly in full bloom. All but one of its petals is in place, meaning the target for this mammoth Millennium fundraising project is within reach.
It is already possible to see what a difference this appeal has made. The roof of the St Leonard's Hospice annexe has now been completed.
This unusual and impressive building is set to house a wonderful facility. Patients and their families will benefit from the more comfortable, private environment it offers.
Readers have responded with extraordinary generosity throughout the appeal so far. Thank you.
Now we need your help one more time to unfurl that final hospice petal.
