Joasia Lesniak, the Corporate Fundraising Manager of St Luke’s said: “This generous gift means so much to St Luke’s and our Community Team, where face to face contact becomes all important when dealing with terminal illness.
“Many of the patients in our care actually continue to live in their homes with the support of our Community Nursing Team and The Gilder Group’s generosity will ensure that our links with the wider Sheffield community grow even stronger over the next 12 months.”
The car’s features include four wheel drive and Honda Connect in-car audio and information system, Bluetooth Hands Free Telephone system, front and rear parking sensors and auto lights and wipers.
