SAINT FRANCIS HOSPICE CHARITY GETS BOOST FROM DEVITT
Romford, 28th June 2006 - Romford-based motorcycle
insurance broker Devitt has donated nearly £1,900 to Romford’s
Saint Francis Hospice following a fund raising day organised by
staff from the firm’s local branch aimed at raising money
for the charity.
All staff took part in a range of fund raising events which included
competitions, playing the X-Factor and even enjoying some wine tasting
to help raise money for the hospice. As a result, the proceeds were
presented today to Neville A Brown (Chairman of Saint Francis Hospice
Development Trust) and the money will be used to help it to continue
providing specialist care to local people who have cancer or other
life-limiting illnesses.
Devitt Director (at the time) William Hughes said, “Saint Francis Hospice
is very much part of the local community and we are delighted to
support them in helping make a difference to those who are less
fortunate than us. Our staff voted for this hospice as they felt
that it provided such an invaluable service.”
Over 350 staff are employed by Devitt which specialises in motorcycle
insurance and also provides car and home insurance.
