Bolton Hospice would like to thank the staff and patrons of The Vulcan Inn, Deane, who have raised an enormous £5,333.41!

Staff and patrons have completed a number of fantastic fundraising activities throughout the year in support of Bolton Hospice.

Landlord Carl Grundy said: “We started the year by Louise Settle from behind the bar doing a dry February challenge which she raised over £1,000 completing!

“We do a bonus ball every Saturday and open the box on a Sunday and we also held a summer barbecue, a large Easter raffle, and Louise and a few other patrons has just done a sky dive to raise more funds!

Angela Griffiths, fundraising manager said: “We’re overwhelmed with the incredible amount The Vulcan Inn have raised for Bolton Hospice. The funds raised will help us to provide vital care and support this Christmas, and we can’t thank everyone enough for their generous support.”
