WATER company Southern Water has pledged £10,000 to Worthing charity St Barnabas House to help the hospice renovate its pond.
As part of its work with the community, the company offers four annual regional grants to charities across Sussex, Hampshire, Isle of Wight and Kent.
St Barnabas House is the chosen charity for Sussex.
The grant will fund a year-long project to renovate a pond in the hospice’s grounds, making it more accessible for patients and families.
These plans will transform the area into a tranquil place for the hospice and a haven for wildlife.
All four regional charities were chosen by Southern Water employees as part of an ongoing drive to support local causes close to the heart of communities it serves.
As well as raising vital funds, employees will also be lending their time and skills volunteering to help their local projects.
St Barnabas House provides specialist palliative and end of life care to adults with life-limiting illnesses, both within the hospice and in the comfort of patient’s own homes across the Worthing, Adur, Arun and Henfield areas.
