Scarborough Hospice Takes To The Sky

St Catherines have launched a summer challenge to raise much needed funds.

A Scarborough charity is asking people to jump out of a plane for their latest fundraiser.

Here's Susan Stephenson from St Catherines with more:

St Catherines Hospice are hosting a parachute day at Grindale near Bridlington.

It's on 19th July and aims to raise funds for their valuable work.

Susan added:

By taking part, participants can contribute to the hospice's mission of providing care and support to individuals with terminal illnesses and their families. 

The charity supports various aspects of care, including 24-hour nursing, counselling, and social work, both at home and in the hospice.

This is the Coast is committed to providing a daily local news service for the Yorkshire Coast. We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.

If you appreciate what This is the Coast does, and would like to help support our journalism, please consider supporting us on a monthly basis today.

A small contribution from all our readers would really help support independent journalism for the Yorkshire Coast.
