This summer, St John’s Hospice is inviting the community to take part in a colourful new fundraising campaign, Rainbow Ribbons, giving supporters the chance to remember someone special in a heartfelt way.

For a donation of £10, supporters can personalise a ribbon with the name of a loved one and tie it in the hospice’s Garden of Remembrance. As more ribbons are added, the garden will become a sea of colour, filled with fluttering ribbons, each one representing a cherished loved one.

The campaign launches this July and will run throughout the summer months, offering families a peaceful and meaningful way to celebrate those they’ve lost while supporting hospice care in Doncaster.

Hospice Fundraising Manager Jenny Baynham said: “We’re proud to launch our Rainbow Ribbons campaign as a beautiful way for people to honour the memory of someone close to their heart.”

She added: “Each ribbon is a personal tribute, and together they’ll create a really moving space in our Garden of Remembrance. Every donation will help us continue providing care and support to local patients and their families.”
