Andrea told the Chesterfield Post, "We are delighted with the latest amount raised by the Chesterfield Rotary Club who have supported the hospice for many years.

"We are now working with well over 100 children with shortened life expectancy and it is only thanks to support like this that we are able to support so many local children."
