Lord Somerset Wines for Charity

Helderberg Hospice received a generous cheque from local wine company, Somerset Beverages, to kick-start their new 25 Years of Care Campaign. This campaign aims to raise funds for Helderberg Hospice. With the funds raised they want to ensure that the special care that the hospice has provided to all in the community over the last quarter of a century can be sustained in the years ahead. It is fitting that proceeds from sales of the Lord Somerset range of wines were donated to this cause.
