Pendleside Collection Boxes

Would you like to host a Pendleside hospice collecting box?

If so, we do appreciate your concern for and interest in the hospice shown in this practical way.

Our collecting boxes raised over £4,000 in the last 12 months from a variety of shops, pubs, clubs and other outlets – another valuable source of income to enable the hospice to continue to provide its first-class services free of charge to those who need them.

Please put the box where your customers/clients can see it (most people find that near the till is a good spot) and where you or your staff can keep an eye on it.

Please also be assured that the hospice in no way holds you accountable for the contents of the box. We simply ask that you take the normal precautions to avoid loss.

When the box is getting full, there are two options available to you.

Bring the box into the hospice reception (or ask someone else to). We will replace it with an empty one and, shortly afterwards, send you a letter telling you how much was in it. This is the best method from our point
of view as it costs the hospice nothing!

Ring the hospice and we will arrange for a volunteer or staff member to call with a replacement. This may take a little time as we wait until someone is travelling to your area on another task to minimise costs.

If you are interested in organising and collecting charity collecting tins on behalf of your local hospice or if you would be prepared to site a collecting tin, then please contact: Christine Ainsworth, Hospice Receptionist, on Tel: 01282 440100.
