A fundraising event is offering guests the chance to enjoy a three-course meal and catch up with a spot of Christmas shopping.

The St Richard’s Hospice Festive Lunch takes place next Thursday (9 December) at The Abbey Hotel in Malvern.

As well as a three-course lunch, there will be an array of stalls hosted by Worcestershire businesses.

Kelly Johns, community and events fundraising manager at St Richard’s Hospice, said: “We’re really looking forward to holding our first Festive Lunch since 2019, as our plans were put on hold last year due to the pandemic.

“This event is always a fun, festive afternoon out in the run up to Christmas. Not only will guests enjoy a delicious lunch, it’s set to be a great shopping experience too with plenty of brilliant local businesses lined up to attend.

“What’s more, every penny raised on the day will help us continue to provide care to people living with serious, progressive illnesses, their loved ones and bereaved people too.”

The event begins at 10.30am, with lunch served at 12.30pm accompanied by a complimentary glass of wine or orange juice.

After lunch, there will be tea, coffee and mince pies. There will also be light, festive entertainment during the day.

Tickets are £35 per adult, and tables of 10 are available. To book tickets visit www.strichards.org.uk/event/festive-lunch-2021
