The Local Business Charity Awards (Cumbria) are an opportunity for local Cumbrian charities to recognise the local community who support them. We wanted to take this opportunity to thank some of our supporters who really go the extra mile in their support. This is the first year these awards have take in place in Cumbria and they are being sponsored by Jelf.

Joanne and her husband started ‘Be Your Own Hero’ as an umbrella under which friends, family and colleagues were encouraged to raise funds for Hospice at Home West Cumbria. Almost £20,000 has been raised for our charity, helping to support patients and carers. We are incredibly grateful for such fabulous support.
