A large donation from the Connolly Foundation has helped Sue Ryder St John’s Hospice in Moggerhanger to keep running and continue to provide its expert care.

The hospice cares for people with life-limiting conditions across Bedfordshire, as well as supporting their families.

For example, the donation could pay for more than 2,300 hours of care, which helps people live the best life they possibly can.

The nurses, doctors and staff help patients and their loved ones with everything from pain and symptom management to emotional and practical help.
