Thanks to the hard work of Julia Tredwell, our Fundraising Trustee, two further events have been held to raise much-needed funds for our work.
Our second Crossroads Quiz, held at Sand Martins Golf Club on 20th April 2018 raised a wonderful £610 helping us to provide much-needed breaks to local carers looking after someone with a life-limiting illness.
