Hospice chiefs in Hartlepool are asking people to give the charity a right royal boost next month.

Ahead of the two-day bank holiday next month, fundraisers at Alice House Hospice are calling for people to celebrate the Queen’s 70 years on the throne by hosting a fundraising jubilee themed party.

Janice Forbes, community fundraiser at Alice House, said: “There’s lots of ways people can celebrate this unique occasion.

"Why not gather your neighbours together for a traditional street party, a party at work with your colleagues or simply get together with your friends and family and have a tea party?

“People might also consider giving up something up for 70 days and get sponsored for doing it.”

The hospice, in Wells Avenue, Hartlepool, has prepared a jubilee fundraising pack which includes hand held flags, cake toppers, Jubilee party invitations and make your own bunting kit.
