Networking lunch featuring Q&A with Bromsgrove MP Sajid Javid raises over £3000 for Primrose Hospice

HEALTH Secretary Sajid Javid was among those in attendance at Primrose Hospice’s Networking Business Lunch on March 25, which raised more than GBP3,000. Local businesses enjoyed an afternoon of networking over a meal before Mr Javid, who is a patron of the Hospice, hosted a Q&A session. The money raised will go towards helping the Primrose to support people living with life-threatening illnesses and their families.

Mr Javid has supported the hospice many times in the past, including completing a 10k running challenge last year which raised GBP20,000. He said: “This is a charity which is extremely important to the local community around Bromsgrove and Redditch. “It is an honour to be their patron and support them in any way I can.”

David Burrell, Chief Executive Officer at Primrose Hospice added: “We are proud to have Mr Javid as our patron and it was a real pleasure to have him as our guest at our recent event.”
