I have supported Friends of Sussex Hospices for many years. FSH is a thirty year old charity that raises funds for all of the 13 hospices in Sussex and operates via volunteers only. Currently, funding for hospices is tighter than ever as populations age and families require care at home as well as support for end of life care for young children as well as population of all ages. Please support by attending the Christmas Fair or make a donation. The Christmas Fair has plenty of free parking and will enable supporters to raise money for all the hospices by enabling small businesses to thrive this Christmas. Delicious food and drink as well as other Sussex based suppliers and household gifts and fashion will enable Christmas presents to be made and Christmas cards in aid of FSH to be purchased.
