Laurence Turner said: “Our company ethos here is all about working together, sharing expertise and supporting each other.
“We feel that the inspiring work which is done every day at Overgate Hospice is truly worthy of our support and it is so important to local people in the community and we’re very proud to be a part of it.”
Becki Marren, Business Partnerships Manager said: “This year has been incredibly difficult for the Hospice, but we are so grateful for businesses like IFT Wealth management and heroes like Laurence who are there to support us when we need it the most.
