Their dedication to the charity stems from a personal connection, with Senior Associate Solicitor Georgina Smith sharing the heartfelt impact the hospice has had on her family.

She said: “A year ago, the hospice helped my family and allowed us to say goodbye to my grandad in the way he wanted - they were so wonderful throughout the process, and I don’t know what we would have done without their support.

“I feel privileged to work for a firm that supports such an amazing charity, because it’s only through support from the South Lakes community that it can continue to support patients and their families.”
