The money raise is to help the Poole-based hospice continue to be there for patients and their family and friends during the most difficult time of their lives.
The event was organised by Lisa Phillips in memory of her brother Malcolm Fripp who was cared for by Forest Holme, while Elvis tribute artist Garry performed in memory of his mum, June, who was also looked after at the hospice.
Paul Tucker, fundraising manager at Forest Holme, said, “We are extremely grateful to Lisa for all her hard work in organising the event in memory of her brother Malcolm Fripp, but we also must say a special thanks to Lisa’s husband Chris and her friend Janice, who made table runners, place mats and bunting with sunflowers on for the show, which we will continue to use at the hospice. Both Garry and MC Neil Willard were absolutely fantastic and made it a very special event.”
