A Day in the Life of our Cafe Volunteers
As part of Volunteers Week, we caught up with a team of our café volunteers to find out what a day of volunteering in the café entails, and why they chose to support Teesside Hospice.
“Before my Aunty Kay passed away in October, she shared her wish to make lavender bags to raise money for Teesside Hospice, the incredible organisation that supported her throughout her terminal cancer journey. Kay loved attending a craft club every Monday and would always text me about what she’d made that day.
As she can’t fulfill this wish, I’m taking it on in her memory. From January to April, I’ll be making and selling lavender heart bag sachets with all proceeds going to Teesside Hospice. A final donation will be presented on April 25th, which would have been Kay’s 60th birthday.”
We’d like to wish a huge thank you to Jen for all of her support in carrying on her Aunty Kay’s wishes of supporting Teesside Hospice.

We're changing lives across Teesside by supporting people and families who've been affected by a terminal illness.
