Fundraiser for St Columba’s – Vegas style
A Vegas themed dinner held at Prestonfield House Hotel has raised £93,000 for hospice care at St Columba's. The event was organised by the hospice and hosted by Grant Stott who kept the audience bidding in the post dinner auction. There was also some casino style fun for the 300 guests to enjoy. But there was a sombre side to the evening, remembering the vital work that the hospice undertakes for those who require end of life care.

Thanks to @stcolumbashospice.bsky.social for a beautiful tree lighting ceremony yesterday. We lit a light in memory of my dad, who we lost this year. St columba's hospice nurses looked after my dad so well, and the hospice continue to support me and my family stcolumbashospice.org.uk/support-us/l...
