COUNTRY LIFE to the Earl Mountbatten Hospice (EMH). On the day it was all down to donations, and they ranged from small coinage to £10 notes. An amazing £1,690 was taken in the car park; the sale of raffle tickets and programmes took £924.00, and the refreshments tent took £1,111. With much generosity from companies who kindly donated generators and toilets, a cheque was presented to the EMH for £6,000 - £5,000 going to patient care and £1,000 towards trying to extend the services of the Hospice to be able to give support and care for children, who currently have to travel from the Island to Naomi’s House in Winchester.
