Princesshay is launching its charity car raffle in April to help raise vital funds for their charity of the year, Children’s Hospice South West (CHSW). From the 6th April, visitors to Princesshay will be able to purchase a raffle ticket to be in with a chance of winning an amazing Toyota C-HR worth £23,595.

Phil Maddison Group Board Director from Snows Toyota & Lexus Exeter said; “We are so pleased to be able to support Children’s Hospice South West in their charity partnership with Princesshay this year. CHSW is an outstanding charity that carry out vital work throughout the region. We would like to wish CHSW the best of luck with their fund-raising attempts for 2017 and hope that with our support they can raise greater awareness of the charity.”

Children’s Hospice South West helps and supports children with life-limiting conditions. The charity has three hospices across the South West, including Little Bridge House in Devon, Little Harbour in Cornwall and Charlton Farm near Bristol. The centres provide respite care and support for children and their families who must cope with the most difficult of situations.

Princesshay Centre Director, Wayne Pearce said: “Children’s Hospice South West is an amazing local charity and we are looking forward to working with such a great team throughout 2017. Our partnership with CHSW isn’t just about raising funds but also aims to raise awareness of the charity and the work they do.”

Princesshay will look to support CHSW throughout the year involving them in headline events including the Spring Spree, EATS at Princesshay and Christmas activity. Princesshay is also sponsoring the Rainbow Run at Westpoint arena on Saturday 10th June 2017,
one of the charity’s key annual events in Exeter.

Josh Allan, Community Fundraiser at Children’s Hospice South West, said: “We’re really grateful for the support of both Princesshay and Snows Toyota & Lexus Exeter for helping us to facilitate our charity car raffle. CHSW is reliant on the generosity and efforts of local businesses to support the work of our three hospices across the South West. We constantly strive to deliver our promise to make the most of short and precious lives across the South West and with the help of the local community we are able to achieve this.”

During 2016, Princesshay supported The Exeter Deaf Academy as its charity of the year, helping to raise over £12,000 for the charity through a charity car raffle, supported by Mercedes Benz.
