Plumb and Parts Center has donated ?570 to support the vital work of the children’s wing of a hospice on the Isle of Man.

Rebecca House provides respite, palliative and end-of-life care for young people with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions, from birth to 18-years-old.

The donation was set up by Steve Reed, the Branch Manager of the Plumb and Parts Center on the Isle of Man.

“I’m delighted to help organise a donation to such a worthy cause,” Steve said.

“Rebecca House is the only child’s hospice on the island, and it’s important for the people here. As an island we’re a tight-knit community, so donations like are a real boost.

“Plumb and Parts Center has its own national charities of choice that it provides support for, so it means a lot when they donate money to local causes like this - it’s a great gesture.”

Mary Doyle, representing Rebecca House was delighted to receive this kind donation from Steve Reed. She added: “Our children’s hospice currently looks after 29 children on the Island so every penny is very precious to us to continue to look after these families.  I would like to thank the Plumb and Parts Center on the Island for their donation.”
