HOSPICE supporters are celebrating its first decade by walking a mile for each of the ten years.
The Butterwick Hospice, at Bishop Auckland, is looking for volunteers to join in the Mile a Year sponsored trek in Teesdale on Saturday, February 19.
Fundraiser Sylvia Stoneham said: "We have a lot to celebrate this year - ten years of caring for many hundreds of patients. Our Out-Reach Day Hospices in Barnard Castle, Sedgefield and Stanhope, and the Palliative Home Care Service are all established now, and have seen many patients access our services more locally, even in their own homes."
Contact the hospice on (01388) 603003.
