Royal Mail Group employees in Northern Ireland have raised more than £77,000 for Hospices in Northern Ireland as part of a nationwide partnership with Royal Mail and Help the Hospices, the national charity for the hospice movement.

It includes almost £40,000 for Northern Ireland Hospice, £20,000 for the Foyle Hospice, and over £17,000 for Southern Area Hospice Services. This puts the Northern Ireland Hospice among the top three of more than 140 hospice beneficiaries of the three year partnership.

Michael Kennedy, General Manager, Royal Mail Northern Ireland said the company was proud of its employees who had worked so hard to realise this achievement.

"Our employees in every office throughout the province got involved by organising fundraising events and with the help of donations from members of the public they have been incredibly generous.
