In her last days I suggested to Jackie that we set up some form of Memorial Fund to raise money to help keep the hospice caring for other families. Therefore I founded The Jackie Green Tribute Fund. This has given me a focus to help during the tremendous ordeal of grieving and trying to “make sense of it all”. She and Bolton Hospice will never be forgotten during my lifetime and those of my three daughters who will continue to raise funds through the Tribute Fund.

Why fundraise for Bolton Hospice?

We're an independent charity mainly funded by the people of Bolton. To continue providing free care and support we need to raise £5 million a year through donations, fundraising and gifts in wills.

We simply couldn't do what we do without all those who fundraise and donate to us and we are proud to support all those who fundraise for us every year. Whether at work, among friends and family, those who take on challenges or the many who join our fundraising events, you all make a massive difference.

The hospice provided a vital service including emotional support, empathy and respect. The kindness of the nurses has transformed our initial idea of what the word ‘hospice’ means and I will be forever grateful to the team for everything they did for us and continue to do for others.
