Local charity invites community to celebrate International Women’s Day
Specialist palliative and bereavement support provider Compton Care is teaming up with Walsh Funerals & Memorials to host an inspiring evening in celebration of International Women’s Day on Thursday, March 5.
The charity is delighted to welcome Melissa Forde, Wolverhampton Wanderers’ Head Performance Chef, as their headline speaker. With over 20 years’ experience in catering – from fine dining to the Premier League – Melissa will share career highlights from her work in elite sport, entertainment, corporate, and leisure industries.
Tickets for this special event are just £15 with all proceeds supporting Compton Care’s vital work in the community.
Rachel Hailey, Corporate Fundraiser for Compton Care, said: “This event is a fantastic opportunity to hear from the amazing Melissa Forde and to connect, network and celebrate women in our community – all while supporting local people living with life limiting conditions. The evening includes a delicious finger buffet for you to enjoy as you relax, catch up, and make meaningful connections.”
Every year, Compton Care supports local people living with life limiting conditions through its range of specialist services, including clinical care on its Inpatient Unit. It also supports patients out in the community, providing compassionate, expert care in the place they call home. Patients’ families also have access to the charity’s services and bereavement support.
The Compton Care International Women’s Day event is hosted at the Genting Casino, Temple Street, Wolverhampton on Thursday, March 5, from 6-9pm.
