Earlier this year, we asked our team which charities and local causes they would like us to support. One of our team members chose The Birchall Trust, a charity doing incredibly important work in our community.

Earlier in the year, we made a donation to the charity, and this month we’ve matched that donation, bringing our total to £100.

We were also pleased to support The Birchall Trust’s K2B team earlier this year by donating refreshments to help keep them going along the way.

This has all been made possible by our Coffee Club ☕️

A big thank you to everyone who continues to support our Coffee Club and help us make a difference in our community! 💙

It’s International Day of Charity! 💙

We’re incredibly proud of our Giving Something Back commitments here at the hotel and are always looking for ways to make a positive difference to the people and causes within our community.

To celebrate International Day of Charity, we’re doubling our Coffee Club donation this weekend! ☕✨

For every hot drink sold during Coffee Club, 40p will be donated, with the proceeds split equally between St Mary's Hospice and initiatives supporting our local community.

Every cup counts! ☕
