One of our wonderful Hospice volunteers Monica has made her pound count every year since Bring a Pound Day started. “Dougie Mac is such a wonderful charity; it gives support to so many people and is why I give my pound every year. Most people can afford £1 and I’d encourage as many people as possible to do the same this year.”
