A massive thank you to High Peak Comps for their incredible support so far this year. 💜

They donated 150 Easter eggs for our Easter hampers for patients and the people important to them, provided prizes for fundraising raffles including Ninja blenders, Lego sets, Ring doorbells and a Ninja cooker, and made a donation through their Community Wheel.

High Peak Comps have also supported more than 10 Ashgate fundraisers in the community, sponsoring challenges and donating prizes to help our supporters raise as much as possible for local hospice care.

We're so grateful for their ongoing support and commitment to helping us continue providing care and support to patients and the people important to them across North Derbyshire.

Thank you, High Peak Comps. 💜

We know Father’s Day can be a joyful day for some and a tender one for others.

However you’re spending today, we’re with you and welcome you to share a message for your dad in the comments. 💜

A huge congratulations to 11-year-old Jamie, who completed an incredible 10-mile walk from Sheffield United's football ground to Chesterfield FC's SMH Group Stadium. ⚽

Jamie took on the challenge to raise money for two causes close to his heart. He raised an amazing £415.27 for Ashgate Hospice and £415.27 for his football team, Chesterfield Junior Blues FC.

At the finish line, Jamie was welcomed by Ashley Bear and Chester the Mouse, who were there to congratulate him on his fantastic achievement.

Well done, Jamie – you're a superstar! 💜
