“Our themed evenings are increasingly popular and are often sold out – upcoming events include a British Evening, French Classics, a Game and Lancashire Delicacies Evening, seafood, and more.

“It’s a wonderful way for our communities to come together and enjoy a fun night out, all whilst raising vital funds for the important work of St Catherine’s, helping us to continue caring for patients and supporting their loved ones at the hospice and in their own homes.”
