My name is Alison Carrington, I've worked at Hospice in the Weald for nearly 8 months and every day I am inspired by the people I meet here. I have personal experience, through both family and friends, of the fantastic care provided by the staff and volunteers here at the Hospice. This care is something that I want to make sure is available to as many people as possible in our local area and that is why, as part of the fundraising team, I am passionate about helping to raise money for the Hospice.
My role is as co-ordinator of our Hospice weekly
lottery and my challenge is to grow the number of people in our lottery from
7,500 to 18,000. Our lottery is a really important means of fundraising
for the Hospice because it brings in regular income, which allows us to plan
ahead for the services we offer. The lottery currently brings in around £310k
per year (after the prizes have been allocated) and my dream is for this to
increase to around £850K.
£310,000 makes a huge difference to the lives of
patients with a terminal illness that have been referred to Hospice in the
Weald, their families and carers. This amount of money can fund the cost
of running our In-Patient Unit AND Hospice in the Home for 6 weeks!
If you are looking for a fun way to support the
Hospice on a regular basis, then please consider either signing up to our
weekly lottery or buying a Hospice Lottery Gift Voucher for a loved one for
Christmas.
Our Hospice lottery costs just £1 per week,
for this you are allocated a computer generated unique membership number, which
is entered into the draw every Friday. This number gives a chance to win one of
43 prizes every week, our top prize of £1000, 2nd prize of £200, 3rd
prize of £100 and 40 prizes of £5.
Hospice Lottery Gift Vouchers are available
for £26 or £52 and can be
purchased directly from Hospice in the Weald, Maidstone Road, Pembury,
Tunbridge wells, Kent TN2 4TA or by contacting Alison Carrington on 01892

Once purchased we will supply you with a Hospice
Lottery Gift Voucher with your unique membership number on, you then add your
own personal message and put the voucher in the gift envelope we provide.
A simple and fun present with the chance of
winning a fantastic prize!
Be one of the amazing people who help us
provide our Hospice care to local people with terminal illnesses, their
families and carers.
