Shop manager Gemma Cartwright said: “We have amazing supporters in Welshpool and wanted to hold an event that will help raise money for the Final Moments Matter campaign.

“This will be a great family day out packed with fun and every pound raised will be doubled thanks to match funders.

“Please come and join us and help us to raise as much money as we can to help reach the target of £500,000.”

Entry to the fun day will be £2 for children and it is cash only.

To give children and families final moments that matte,r Hope House says it needs to raise £500,000 – the annual cost of providing the best end of life care for every child and family who turns to them.
