Mrs Dorothy Salisbury of Penmaenmawr recently celebrated her 90th birthday. As a supporter of St David’s Hospice for many years, she chose to ask for donations to the hospice instead of birthday presents. If you are celebrating a special occasion this year, why not support the hospice whilst celebrating. Celebration Giving is a positive and unique way of celebrating a special occasion whilst supporting the work of St David’s Hospice.
