Banking specialists pledge two years of support to children’s hospice

The team at Arbuthnot Latham has pledged to support Children’s Hospice South West in 2020 and 2021

The Exeter office of private and commercial bank, Arbuthnot Latham will be supporting Children’s Hospice South West (CHSW) as its charity of the year for 2020 and 2021.

The team, based in Southernhay Gardens, said they were looking forward to working with CHSW and had a number of fundraising events planned, including a business breakfast, local gin and wine tasting evenings, and a quiz night.

Rob Salisbury, Head of the Exeter office, said: “We are proud to have Children’s Hospice South West as our chosen local charity. Little Bridge House puts children and their families at the heart of all they do and we look forward to supporting them.

We are celebrating our 25th year in Exeter in 2020, and it’s great to be able to support incredible local causes like this.

Mhairi Bass-Carruthers, CHSW Corporate Partnerships Fundraiser, said: “We are delighted that Arbuthnot Latham has chosen Children’s Hospice South West as its charity of the year for the next two years. 

“Their fundraising really will make a huge difference to more than 500 families across the South West.  

“It costs around £11million a year to run our three hospices and we rely almost entirely on voluntary contributions. We just couldn’t do what we do without such generous support from the local business community.”
