ST Michael’s Hospice has bought a therapy sofa with donations from a Hereford employment and training specialist.

Pertemps People Development Group handed over £300 to the hospice while employee Sue Dean raised a further £633 that was split between the hospice and Macmillan Cancer Support.

Nickatie DiMarco, in-reach manager at the hospice, said they are grateful to all the organisations that helped them to purchase the therapy couch.

“It has transformed a small room that struggled with a hospital bed into a comfortable useful therapy room,” she added.
