WORCESTER, U.K. - eTradeWire -- The Property Centre, an estate agent with branches located across Worcester, Gloucester, Cheltenham and Stroud has donated over £5,000 to St. Richard's Hospice.

In celebration of the estate agent's 25th year in business last year, the team decided to mark the milestone by donating £25 to charity for every new property they instructed that went on to complete or let before the end of 2022.

The grand total raised came to £20,025 and in support of the four main areas covered by their branches, a charitable cause in each locality was chosen, with the total split equally between the four charities.

With two offices in Worcester, The Property Centre chose to donate to St. Richard's Hospice.

This charity cares for people with severe progressive illnesses, whose complex needs cannot be met by other services. These include cancer and neurological, respiratory, cardiac and renal conditions.

The care given by St. Richard's Hospice improves their quality of life from diagnosis, during treatment, to their last days, while also supporting their loved ones.

Some of the money accrued was donated earlier in 2022 and Faye McDonnell, branch manager of The Property Centre's office in Worcester handed over a cheque for the remaining amount of £4,472 this week.

Leon Broady, senior partner at The Property Centre said:

"As an independent company with estate agents in Cheltenham, Gloucester, Stroud and Worcester, it's important to us to support our local communities and the charities which serve them."

The other charities supported by The Property Centre's 2022 pledge included National Star in Cheltenham, the Chamwell Centre in Gloucester and Longfield Community Hospice in Stroud.

Stuart Nash, co-founding senior partner at The Property Centre added, "As a local company, we've built our business on being an integral part of the communities we serve and we've been proud to fundraise for some of these charities before, with events like climbing the National Three Peaks in 24 hours and completing the Cotswold Way Challenge.

"However, our 25th-anniversary pledge was more ambitious, and we're delighted to have donated to such worthwhile local causes."

Between 2016 and 2021, The Property Centre (https://www.thepropertycentres.co.uk/) raised over £30,000 for local charities. Thanks to their 25th-anniversary pledge, that figure has almost doubled in the last 12 months.
