      Ray's Legacy...

      Ray Mobberley began raising money for Dougie Mac in memory of his wife of 39 years, Kathleen, who received care and support for around two years before she passed away in 2020. In addition to his regular fundraising, Ray has also generously left a gift to Dougie Mac in his Will.
      “Dougie Mac helped Kathleen with her pain management and medication, which made a real difference. They were so caring and supportive and I wanted to do something in her memory so I began fundraising. I also decided to leave a donation in my Will, which will be a lasting legacy for Kathleen and my final way of saying thank you to Dougie Mac for the excellent care, and support they gave her.”

      This is Hospice Care

      Hospices like ours are at the very heart of communities, offering compassionate care and support when we need it most. For many of us, a hospice will touch our lives, whether for ourselves, a loved one, or a friend, providing comfort, dignity, and expert care through life’s most challenging times.

      We’re asking everyone to consider leaving a gift in their will to a hospice close to their heart. By doing so, you can help us continue to provide this vital care, ensuring that everyone has the support they need for generations to come.

      Together, we can make sure that hospice care lives on for all, for now, forever.
