THE Poundbakery has donated £1,000 to Bolton Hospice as part of the bakery’s Summer Charity Project.
The Bolton branch of Poundbakery in Market Street nominated Bolton Hospice as one of their chosen charities to receive money raised from the 5p plastic bag charge.
Poundbakery’s marketing manager, Keely Palin, said: “We are all delighted to be giving £1,000 to Bolton Hospice and are confident it will be a wonderful benefit.
“Bolton Hospice do such great work in the region with helping patients as well as providing family support.”
Bolton Hospice provides specialist care and support to people who may be suffering with incurable illnesses.
Funding will go towards maintaining a specialise team of nursing staff, specialist doctors and other hospice staff who keep the wards running.
Poundbakery has been raising money for charity since the plastic carrier bag charge began last year. Since then the bakery as a whole has raised a total of £27,000 which will be distributed between 27 charities across the region.
Poundbakery, founded by Sayers and headquartered in Sidney Street continues to be a Bolton business success story, with recently opened new stores in Mansfield, Crewe and throughout the Midlands.
