St Vincent’s Hospice was the nominated charity by the store’s staff members to receive this much appreciated donation.  David Cunningham, Area Manager for Spar Scotland said, “The staff of our Lochwinnoch store had nominated St Vincent’s Hospice because of work of the Hospice in the local area.  They are delighted to be able to help to give something back.”

Carol-Anne Lamont, who collected the cheque on behalf of the hospice, said, “We are hugely grateful to everyone involved for the donation and would like to thank staff and customers of the store for thinking of St Vincent’s Hospice. These funds will be used to support our work both at the hospice and in the community.”
