Foyle Hospice celebrates 40 years of specialised care with gala celebration

FOYLE Hospice has announced a landmark event in its history - 40 years of delivering specialist palliative care and support to patients and families across the North West.

To mark this incredible milestone, the hospice will host a 40th Anniversary Gala on Saturday, October 11, at the stunning Everglades Hotel.

The gala will be an inspiring evening of celebration, reflection and gratitude - paying tribute to the donors, staff, volunteers, and supporters whose dedication has ensured the hospice’s services remain a vital lifeline in the community.

“This is a celebration of the people behind the care,” said Donall Henderson, chief executive of Foyle Hospice.

“For four decades, the community has been the beating heart of everything we do.

"This gala is our way of honouring their incredible commitment and unwavering support.

"We are especially grateful to our corporate sponsors, Share Energy and Lynch’s Eurospar, for their generous support in helping make this milestone celebration possible.”

Guests will enjoy a memorable evening featuring a sparkling drinks reception, three-course dinner, live music by NightHeat and entertainment.
