ScottishPower Foundation has made a second donation of £25,000 to The Prince & Princess of Wales Hospice’s Brick by Brick Appeal, bringing the total amount it has donated to £50,000.
The Glasgow hospice’s capital appeal aims to raise £21 million to build a new hospice in Bellahouston Park.
The Foundation’s £50,000 total gift will pay for a complementary therapy room in the new hospice.
Work is about to start to build the hospice at Bellahouston Park, with patients expected to move in 2018.
Ann Loughrey, trustee and executive officer of the ScottishPower Foundation, said:
“Knowing that the funds from the foundation will go directly to supporting patients receiving care aligns to our values of making a real impact in local communities.”
