A fundraising effort has raised nearly £11,000 for Tynedale Hospice at Home.

Methodist Women in Britain raised £10,920 for the hospice, a Northumberland charity providing palliative care and support for families.

The fundraising was led by Rosemary Gray, president of Methodist Women in Britain, who chose the hospice as her charity of the year.

Cathy Bates, fundraising manager at Tynedale Hospice at Home, said: "We are incredibly grateful to Rosemary Gray and the Methodist Women in Britain for their generosity and dedication.

"Support like this allows us to provide care to so many local people when they need it most.

"Their commitment truly makes a difference, and we cannot thank them enough."

The charity relies on community support and donations to continue delivering care to patients with life-limiting conditions and their families.

In West Northumberland, Tynedale and Ponteland, Tynedale Hospice at Home offers home-based care and support for adults with palliative needs or undergoing treatment for life-limiting conditions, and pre or post-bereavement support.

The funds raised will go towards the continued work of the hospice charity, which works to support patients and families during some of life’s most difficult times.
