Wear your jolliest jumper this December to
help make a difference for local people and
their families.
Join us in wearing your best (or worst)
Christmas jumpers to support your local
Hospice. Simply donate £1 and every single
pound raised is then used to fund patient
care at St. Clare’s.
Anyone can take part including workplaces,
community groups and schools.

together we’re making every day count, not
counting every day!

Boxing Day Dip
Saturday 26th December
On Saturday, 26th December we will be holding our annual Boxing
Day Dip, which allows people who are as mad as a hatter (oops we
mean brave and committed) to dip into the sea for their favourite
charity – us!
While many are recovering from a day of over-indulgence, why
don’t you shake off the Christmas cobwebs and be part of this
brrr-illiant event?
We want to make this year’s Boxing Day Dip the biggest yet! The event
is open to anyone aged 8 plus, so you can encourage your children to
be just as ‘cool’ as you!
You can wear anything you like, as long as you wear something - birthday suits do not count as fancy dress! Participants
are encouraged to wear fancy dress but it is not compulsory. However, there are prizes for the best dressed team and best
individual for their efforts. You don’t need spend money on an outfit, use your imagination; it’s part of the fun!! So if you fancy
chilling on Boxing Day, this event is perfect for you.
Help Needed!
Can you spare an hour or two to help out at
events, packing bags at local supermarkets or
helping out in the fundraising office? Then we
would love to hear from you.
Donations of unwanted gifts, chocolates and
alcohol to be used as part of tombola’s or raffles
would be greatly appreciated. Please bring your
unwanted gifts directly to the Hospice.

events mentioned or if you would like to
