A festive coffee morning in aid of Saint Michael’s Hospice has raised more than £1,100.

The event was organised by Carefound Home Care at The Ripon Inn and saw a mix of festive celebrations including Christmas crafts, raffle prizes donated by local businesses, and carols from Holy Trinity School choir.

More than 50 people attended throughout the day, bringing together clients and their families, carers, and volunteers from other local charities.

Danielle Ferebee, recruitment and community manager at Carefound Home Care in Harrogate, said:

It was so lovely to bring the local community together at our Christmas coffee morning. We had a great mix of people, and it was brilliant to see so many of our clients with their families and carers.

Carefound Home Care would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all who attended, and a special thank you to local businesses Luce & Bear, G&T’s Ice Cream, Karma Ripon, Portly Pig, and The Healing Hub with Kelly Wise, for their generous contributions to our raffle.

All the money raised on the day will go to Saint Michael’s Hospice, a charity that provides care and support to people affected by terminal illness in the Harrogate district.

Leonie Houching, community and events fundraiser at Saint Michael’s Hospice, said:

We are so grateful for the generosity and support of Carefound Home Care. The funds they have raised at their coffee morning are vital for us to continue helping those living with terminal illness in the Harrogate area.
