Corporate fundraiser for Oakhaven Hospice, Natalie Hutchins joins me on this episode of the podcast.

Oakhaven, situated in the heart of the New Forest, helps and supports hundreds of families, offering palliative and end of life care to loved ones. To be able to offer such wonderful care, requires a significant amount of money, and therefore, a significant amount of fundraising.

That’s where people like Natalie come in. She talks to me about how much her team are responsible for raising, from such a relatively small area, how she goes about it and much more.

So, if you already know about Oakhaven and the tremendous job they do, or you want to find out more and the great lengths the team have to go to then this episode is for you.
