Taylor Wimpey has made a donation of £2,500 to St Vincent’s Hospice in Howwood from their staff and charities committee.
The team at Taylor Wimpey West Scotland has also used its expertise to help with a refurbishment of the staff kitchen and washroom to provide better facilities for the team providing care at the hospice.

The Hospice has an 8-bed Inpatient Unit with a multi-disciplinary team to offer the best care that it can; a Day Hospice Service provides support with symptom management, Community Nurse Specialists to provide care and support at home, and it provides a range of supportive services to
patients and their families.
