The DCP consists of the Darlington & District Hospice Movement (St Teresa’s Hospice), Darlington Samaritans, Age Concern, Friends of Darlington Memorial Hospital and Darlington Mind. The partnership has secured the Darlington Building Society as main sponsor with its funding covering the advertising, printing and marketing costs of the DCP as well as its general administration expenses.
