Paul Sartori Hospice at Home has recently received a donation of £1,000 from the South Hook LNG Community Fund managed by PAVS, which has enabled the charity to purchase 40 branded fleeces in a range of sizes for its dedicated team of event volunteers and to supplement the volunteer uniform available.

This is in addition to a recent donation from the Port of Milford Haven Community Fund which funded the purchase of 30 branded polo shirts.

Volunteers are the backbone of the charity, and without them, Paul Sartori would simply not be able to run its services. These fleeces will be distributed to event volunteers who help to raise vital funds and support the charity at a wide range of community events across the county.

The team are busy throughout the year in Pembrokeshire with events such as the New Year’s Day Dip, Kilgetty Bike It, the Pembrokeshire Car Runs, and the Pembrokeshire County Show.

The uniform will ensure that volunteers are visible, easily recognisable and will always portray a professional image while representing the charity.

“We are delighted to equip our volunteers with additional uniform. They have expressed a willingness to purchase their own polo shirts and fleeces, which clearly demonstrates their enthusiasm and commitment, but Paul Sartori believes volunteers should be provided with a uniform as recognition of their vital contribution,” said Jo Lutwyche, Event & Fundraising Officer at Paul Sartori.

Judith Williams, Grant Development Officer at Paul Sartori, said “We are hugely grateful to the South Hook LNG Community Fund for their ongoing support of our charity. Our event volunteers are the heart of our fundraising efforts, and these fleeces will help keep them comfortable, safe and professional, whatever the weather. This is a wonderful way to recognise their hard work and dedication to Paul Sartori Hospice at Home.”
