Hide AdFunds from the event will go towards the delivery of St Wifrid's' compassionate end of life care in the local community and on a variety of core items such as medical equipment, drugs, utility costs and staff wages.
Cllr Holbrook added: "The money raised from this cake sale event will help St Wilfrid's to continue their good work - providing high quality specialist palliative and end-of-life care in our local community. Many of the people who I have spoken to in Hailsham that have had some kind of interaction with the hospice has nothing but commendation for the care and attention they offer to patients."
"I've also taken pleasure making a donation of £200 to St Wilfrid's recently, one of a number of donations to local charities given as a result of coming in under budget on my allocated mayoral allowance, as well as donating a trolley bed presented to the Life Care Manager at the hospice."
