Good News: Bury College students raise money for local Hospice

It's time for a good news story. This one involves students from Bury College raising money for Bury Hospice.

Bury College Business students have been busy raising money for Bury Hospice as part of their college Course.

Bury College, Lancashire

Their course includes a unit called Business Events, and it was as part of this that the students decided to raise money for something close to the hearts of many.   

The students were split into four groups, across two classes and each of them had to decide on an event they wanted to run. They organised two car washes, one murder mystery-themed escape room and sold lanyard reels. 

Bury Hospice aims to help people fulfil their wishes during life-limiting illnesses, and they work hard to provide quality care whenever and wherever it is needed.
