Record breaking funds raised for Les Bourgs Hospice

Friday 22 January 2021


The International Stock Exchange raised almost £13,000 for Les Bourgs Hospice in 2020.

Through a variety of fund-raising initiatives TISE raised a total of £12,952.24 for the charity.

The funds raised have been welcomed by Les Bourgs, after a difficult and unusual year for all involved.

“We are delighted to receive this support from the TISE,” said Liz Stonebridge, Funding Administrator at Les Bourgs, “the pandemic has made it a lot more difficult to fundraise and so this extra contribution from TISE is hugely welcome.”

The money was raised through a variety of events held throughout the year. Staff took part in cake sales, meat draws and the TISE festival.

The 30/30 cycling challenge was also completed by several members of TISE and an Everest themed event saw 44 riders cycle up and down L’Eree hill.

“The record amount raised by the staff at TISE is made even more special by the fact it was achieved in such a difficult year given the Covid-19 pandemic,” said head of HR, Laura Cornelius.

“We are delighted to support a charity which provides the highest levels of compassionate and professional care to patients suffering from life-limiting illnesses.”
