A stylish, silver Morgan sports car could be yours for just £2, thanks to a special St Richard’s Hospice anniversary raffle.
The iconic car, produced in Malvern, is the special prize in the hospice’s silver anniversary raffle, marking 25 years since St Richard’s first started in Worcestershire.
The Morgan 4/4 Sport has been individually designed to reflect the hospice colours, with the interior seats in blue with green piping and the snowdrop logo embroidered on the headrests.
Community Fundraiser Joanna Street said, “This is a stunning raffle prize – imagine winning the Morgan and being able to drive into 2010 in such style! Morgan and St Richard’s are both celebrating anniversaries this year and are inspiring and iconic symbols of Worcestershire.”
She added, “This wonderful raffle prize has been made possible through the generous support of Webbs Garden Centres and Worcester Racecourse. This is a special year for us, celebrating 25 years of caring for patients and families living with cancer and other life-threatening illnesses. We really hope people will spare £2 to support us, and may win a fantastic car in the process. Why not buy someone tickets as a Christmas present or just to treat yourself? ”
Webbs Executive Chairman, Ed Webb said, “Webbs is a long-standing supporter of St Richard’s and its wonderful work in the community. We are very happy to support them in this exciting venture. The raffle is an easy way to help the hospice for just £2 a ticket.”
Jenny Cheshire, Hospitality Manager of Worcester Racecourse said, “We are delighted to be supporting St Richard’s Hospice with their car raffle again this year. The work they do is so important and touches the lives of so many. We wish them every success with this fundraising venture.”
The draw for the raffle takes place on 31st March, 2010.
Tickets will be on sale at all the hospice shops in Worcester, Malvern, Droitwich, Upton on Severn, Broadway, Tewkesbury, Pershore and Evesham and the hospice at Wildwood Drive, Worcester.
