A Musical Fundraiser for Queenscourt Has Real Soul

Queenscourt Hospice would like to say a huge thank you to The Stanley Soul Club for hosting their Northern Soul /Motown Charity ‘alldayer’ in aid of #teamqueenscourt.  

Joan Rimmer, Queenscourt Retail Bank Manager and her husband Steve, regularly host a Northern Soul / Motown night at The Stanley Club in Burscough, and we were delighted that this year they chose to support Queenscourt as their nominated charity.  

The day started at 2pm and lasted until 9pm, with music from special guest DJ’s and resident DJ’s as well as lots of dancing with friends and visitors. 

Joan said: “What a busy but fun day we had raising money for Queenscourt. It was a small gathering, but everyone gave generously for this worthy cause. 

“We were supported by our regular loyal friends and guests plus we had the pleasure of Hayley Malcolm and Ron Taylors’ company who also work for Queenscourt Retail, and Retail Volunteers Carl Ashcroft, Sue and Alan Proffit and Ruth Jones.

Big thanks to Ruth Jones for donating the star raffle prize of a brand-new Jasper Conrad wrist watch and Hayley Malcolm who drew the winning raffle tickets.” 

Almost 70 raffle prizes were donated by family members, Soul friends, Queenscourt colleagues and Tesco.

Joan added: “We were amazed and pleased to have raised the sum of £416.00 and we would like to thank everyone so very much for your kind donations.”
