Bristol law firm Barcan+Kirby has raised over £7,000 for St Peter’s Hospice after a year of fundraising initiatives.
Staff members from across five offices took part in runs and cycle rides, cooked and baked delicious treats, bid in an auction of promises, filled the clothes donation bins and held a quiz.
St Peter’s Hospice was chosen as the firm’s Charity of the Year after having connections to many employees. The hospice helped care for Hanni Pennelegion, a much-loved and well-respected partner at the firm who died in November 2023.
Hugh James, corporate partnership officer at St Peter’s Hospice said: “Thank you to the team at Barcan+Kirby. Your commitment, ideas and energy helped drive the fundraising total, whilst your involvement in cycling the Tour de Bristol and participation in the Great Bristol run added some serious kudos. The amount raised will ensure we can continue to provide compassionate end-of-life care to support people in their homes and at our Inpatient Unit when they need it most.”
