A baton is passed...

As we all know, the work of the Willen Hospice is second to none in providing effective and compassionate end-of-life care to hundreds of local people. Julie and I were invited to attend a short reception at Chicheley Hall last Thursday evening to welcome the new Chief Executive of the Hospice: Peta Wilkinson. You can read more about her here.

This was an inspiring event and as always, great to meet many people involved in supporting and working with the Hospice. Peta was introduced by Paul Davis, the Chairman of the Board of Trustees. You can see them both below.


If you would like to support the work of the Willen Hospice, you can volunteer, or buy things from the local shop or donate money or (as I do) take part in their regular lottery! There are lots of ways to be involved.

As an aside, I had a fascinating conversation with the Peter Bhupatsingh Kara, the High Sheriff of Buckinghamshire where he challenged me (in an utterly charming way) to arrange something in the town to do with Mental Health... Thus challenged... watch this space!
