PATIENTS at St Richard’s Hospice have been presented with a veritable festive forest thanks to Webbs Garden Centre in Wychbold.

The garden centre has delivered several large and small real Christmas trees to the day hospice, the Snowdrop Centre, and in-patient bedrooms at the hospice.

Staff, volunteers and patients then launched into decorating the trees, to give the hospice a Christmassy feel.

Tricia Cavell, fundraising director at St Richard’s Hospice, said; "This is a wonderful gift from Webbs, who are very generous supporters of St Richard's throughout the year. It makes all the difference to patients to help them to enjoy the festive spirit of the season."
