The building of a new children's hospice at Eltham will be completed early next year and it should open at the end of 2008.

On behalf of the Demelza project, community fundraiser Rosemary Norris would like to thank all those customers at the Sainsbury's store at Locksbottom who contributed £454 to the cause during a fundraising day.

Anyone wishing to see how the project is progressing can visit demelza.org.uk or telephone 0208 859 7766.
