A year of impressive fundraising has helped a hospice care charity continue its work.

Forest Holme in Poole raised more than £10,000 in 2025 thanks to the support of Railston Ltd, which named the charity its Charity of the Year.

Philip Arnett, Director at Railston Ltd, selected the charity in memory of his mother, who received care at the hospice.

Mr Arnett and his father, Roger, were recently welcomed at the hospice to thank them for their help.

The company raised £10,723.31 through a range of events, from skydives in Scotland to the Welsh Three Peaks Challenge, along with bake sales and Movember.

Kirsty Perks, Corporate and Community Fundraiser at Forest Holme Hospice Charity, said: “On behalf of everyone at the hospice would like to extend sincere thanks to everyone at Railston Ltd. Their generosity and dedication will make a lasting difference to the patients and families supported by the hospice.”
