Cransley Hospice in Kettering provides an ideal environment in which to care for patients, for whose illness cure may no longer be an option. To sustain the quality of care the Hospice aims to raise £500,000 per year by charitable donations and fund-raising activities.
Saving in this account will help Cransley Hospice because 1% of the average balance in the account will be donated to the Hospice every year. This donation will be made by the Society, so it won't reduce the balance on your account or the amount of interest you are paid. |
