LIONHEART: Raise and donate £1,000 to Little Havens Children's Hospice
June 30, 2021
In days when the world seems to revolve only around football, LIONHEART remind us that there are things that really matter.
Last week Dennis, Rocky and Clive went along to Little Havens Hospice (StackPath) to present them a cheque about £1,000, as result of the "Mary Did You Know" charity 7"-Vinyl, released last Christmas.
Here a video, the musicians made about the visit at the hospice:

Last year Lionheart became aware of the incredible work Little Havens children's hospice was undertaking. The band resolved to lend its support by releasing a remixed limited edition 7-inch white vinyl version of their Christmas song 'Mary Did You Know' with a re-worked version of 'The Reality Of Miracles' on the B-side. 100% of the proceeds from the record were to be donated to Little Havens.
The single sold so well, both as both vinyl and download, that the band were able to present Little Havens with a cheque for £1,000. Dennis Stratton from Lionheart stated "we are so very grateful to everyone who went out and bought the single and therefore helped us to raise this amazing figure of £1,000. It was beyond what we had hoped for and all we can say on behalf of the band and the staff and children at Little Havens is thank you so very, very much".
Tanya King, Philanthropy Manager at Havens Hospices added: "Our thanks and gratitude go out to all the Lionheart fans who bought the record in order to support us in our work. It sounds like a cliché, but every pound really is 'Making every day count' for those we are caring for today, and those we will meet in the future too. So thank you all once again for your incredibly kind donation of £1,000.00."
Little Havens provides palliative nursing and supportive care to children of all ages living with complex or incurable conditions. The hospice's specialist Care Team support children and their families throughout illness, death and bereavement, in the comfort of their own home or at the hospice based in Thundersley, Essex. If you wish to help Little Havens with a donation please visit their website at StackPath.
