To mark the Dove Service’s 40th Birthday, Claire & Steve walked the Two Saints Way in June. The Two Saints Way is 92 mile route between Chester and Lichfield Cathedral.
Our thanks and congratulations go out to Claire & Steve, for completing the walk and raising an amazing £1,356.25 for the service.
Rob was moved by the story of our dear friend & supporter, Richard Bland, who has written the book ‘AB Gets His Wings’ to raise awareness of children’s #mentalhealth, and he wanted to get involved to raise vital funds to help our charity. Rob comments “It was an honour to help the Dove Service with this 500 mile challenge. They do such important work helping people in the most difficult times; it seemed even more timely to help during the COVID-19 pandemic when so many people will need your help”.
Well done Rob and what an achievement! Thanks for all your support which will go towards supporting children & adults through their grief.

A massive thank you to Susan Whitmore, Manager at Longton Garden of Remembrance, who organised their Christmas Remembrance service on Tues 5th December 2017.
S-O-T Male Voice Choir and Werrington Ladies Choir provided the singing, remember a loved one on the Christmas Tree, along with a prize raffle, tea/coffee and cakes available on the night. The event was very well attended by family and friends remembering their lost loved ones and and all funds raised, equating to over £170.00, was donated to the Dove Service.
Thank you once again Susan for all your fundraising efforts!
A huge thank you to Holy Trinity Church Eccleshall who organised a charity auction evening at Eccleshall Cricket Club on 29th September 2017. Funds were raised for Holy Trinity Church and the Dove Service.
The evening provided much entertainment with many auction prizes up for grabs and a tasty ploughman’s supper on offer for the guests! We are very grateful to receive a cheque for the sum of £300.00 from the fundraiser – thank you very much!
