Funds are still flowing in for the new North Devon Hospice outreach centre in Holsworthy.

The Long House Appeal has topped its £75,000 target and building work started earlier this year.

The centre will provide one-to-one counselling for patients and family members, including children, complementary therapy and support groups.

Long House will also provide a base for hospice consultant and community nurse specialists to deliver outpatient clinics and further support the work of the community hospital.
