Dorothy said “I couldn’t believe it when I received a call from the Hospice telling me that I was the top prize winner. It certainly is a very nice surprise especially at this time of year. I remember watching how the Hospice was built back in the 1990s as I used to work at Preston Hall, it is a great cause and one I’m proud to support.”
