Generous fundraisers donated £37,000 to the Ayrshire Hospice recently.
The money was raised at the charity’s Summer Ball at Trump Turnberry Hotel and Spa on Saturday, May 28.
The event was hosted by Scottish comedian and TV/radio presenter Des Clarke, while top charity auctioneer Alex Fleming helped to raise an incredible amount in the main auction.
Guests heard from Ayrshire Hospice CEO, Tracy Flynn, and one of the Hospice’s inspirational patients about the positive impact that the care and services provided by the Hospice have for those across Ayrshire & Arran affected by any life-limiting illness including cancer, neurological conditions, end stage heart failure and lung disease, who said: “Our Summer Ball is an iconic event in the calendar and to return after a two-year absence this event certainly did not disappoint – it was a fabulous evening from start to finish, while raising awareness of our crucial services.”
