“We’re extremely grateful to Mr and Mrs Srinivasan for choosing to support St Catherine’s Hospice.

“Their support means we’re able to continue providing specialised care to people who are facing conditions such as Motor Neurone Disease, cancer, heart failure and MS, so they can avoid unnecessary time in hospital and experience a good quality of life, and when the time comes, comfort and dignity in death.”

Tickets for the Ball are priced at £55 and they can be bought from Krishna Srinivasan by ringing 07860 627720.
