Chris & Diana residents at Chawley Grove completed the 100 laps of the garden and did an amazing job of raising £1,230 plus Gift Aid for those that could opt in. Gift Aid allows charities to claim basic rate tax of 20% on your donation.
Chris & Diana both had their own personal reasons to raise funds for Sobell House. Chris was a volunteer at Sobell Shop in Kidlington for about 10 years and Diana was keen to make a modest contribution, fundraising for Sobell House.
Many of our community kindly choose to remember and celebrate the life of their loved ones with Sobell House, by raising money or donating in their memory. There are two new ways in which you can do this:
- Sobell House Forget-me-not tribute pages allows you to set up your own special memorial website in tribute to a loved one. They provide a shared space that you can use to share memories, thoughts and stories with family and friends as well as light candles, add music, photos and videos.
- Sobell House Memory Tree is a beautifully designed artwork, which has recently been installed at the Hospice. You are invited to dedicate a leaf on the tree to your loved one. Each leaf on the tree is packed full of love, experiences and memories. By purchasing a leaf and supporting Sobell House you will help us to ensure that our patients can live life to the fullest and enable other local families to create new memories to cherish. You can dedicate a leaf in memory of anyone special to you, even if they were not cared for by Sobell House Hospice.
