Aylesbury-based charity appealing for a new delivery van
The hospice is now appealing for donations and financial help towards a replacement van after its current one recently failed its MOT.
The furniture collection and delivery service is an essential income stream for the hospice, whose retail operations provide a third of the funding to the charity.

Hide AdSpeaking last week before the van failed its MOT, the hospice's head of retail Lily Caswell said: “We have had the current van for a long time now.
“It has started to be unreliable and it has a few mechanical quirks which are manageable at the moment but make life a bit difficult for our delivery team.”
The hospice is appealing to companies for donations towards a replacement van at a cost of £22,000.
Lily added: “Any organisation that donates towards the new van will have their logo and company name displayed on it, showing the local community that the company has supported this much-loved local charity and providing free advertising wherever the van is driving around Buckinghamshire.”
