Following its annual Help for Hospices fundraising week in December, Covers Timber & Builders Merchants is donating £33,000 to 12 hospices across the South East, Builders’ Merchants Journal reported. The Help for Hospices campaign has become a significant annual event for Covers. Since its launch in 2015, £249,000 has been given, supporting hospices that play a crucial role in providing care to those in need. Rupert Green, chairman at Covers Timber & Builders Merchants, commented: “We are thrilled to support our 12 amazing charities with £33,000 through our Help for Hospices fundraising week. “The generosity of our staff and support of our customers has made a significant impact on the lives of those in our communities who rely on the services provided by the hospices. “We extend our thanks to every customer and member of our team who contributed to the fundraising total.” Between December 11-15, all Covers branches actively participated in fundraising efforts for their respective local hospices. As part of the commitment to giving back, the company pledged to contribute £1 for every metre of 4×2 timber sold during the week.
