Charity Donation to St Margarets Somerset Hospice


Tynte Lodge, donate to St Margarets Somerset Hospice

23rd March 2022

Members of the Tynte Lodge in Bridgwater recently donated the magnificent sum of £600 to assist St Margarets Somerset Hospice,

with their efforts to recover from lost funding during the Covid Lockdown.

The Hospice were forced to close many of their retail outlets due to Covid, and consequently their income was seriously affected.

Members of Tynte Lodge heard about the problem and visited the Hospice Retail and Logistics Centre

where they donated the entire proceeds of a recent dinner to celebrate

Burns Night.

During the visit,

they learned that St Margarets are very keen to hear from anyone who might have large items of furniture etc.

that can be donated to help with fundraising. Pick-up can be arranged by calling St Margarets on 01823 218313.
