Hospice Fundraising Garden Party

Maureen from Hillsborough - Lepperton

A very special garden party, hosted in a delightful garden, with a menu of culinary delight and a variety of unique and exceptional auction items…

Funds raised from the evening will provide essential funds for Hospice Taranaki to deliver patients and their family/whanau with specialised palliative care.

Phone Rose 027 589 8771 - with any questions.

The support of the wonderful Sponsors has made this possible and we now need to sell as many tickets to this event as possible therefore we are relying on all you very generous people in Taranaki to come and join us for a fun evening!

On Arrival in the Tranquil Parklike Garden you will be greeted with a Glass of Bubbly from Fitzroy Liquor.

You can wander around the grounds at your leisure while listening to the live music from Midlife Crisis and sipping your free Gin Cocktail compliments of Juno Gin and tasting the deliciously special canapes from Delistar Catering.

You will then be invited into the fabulous marquee from Dobson’s Marque Hire. Here Jamie Phillips and his wonderful team will tease your tastebuds with 6 courses of his carefully prepared delectable morsels. During this time you will be entertained by our “Mystery Guest Speaker”.

We are fortunate to have the services of Peter McDonald as our MC and Auctioneer for the items that have been donated for auction with all proceeds to the Taranaki Hospice.

Tickets $120.00
