The hospice supports children with life-limiting conditions as well as families living with the loss of a child, from its purpose built base, Russell House.
Every year the hospice holds an Easter party for families supported both through its respite service and those who come back each year having lost a child.
Activities co-ordinator Laila Latif said the team at the hospice were extremely grateful for Lubrizol and other companies which provided valuable support through donating Easter eggs.

Sinead Quinn, from Lubrizol’s charities and communities committee, said: “It was a pleasure to donate Easter eggs to Forget-me-Not Hospice. It’s part of the work we do to give back to the local community as much as we can. We’ve donated food to the local food bank; we had a bake sale at work to raise money for St John Ambulance, and we helped out sorting out school uniform donations for another charity too.
“We hope that these chocolate eggs help those families supported by Forget-me-Not Hospice have a great Easter.”
