 CWSE logo

Beautiful Butterflies is kindly sponsored by CWSE Limited. The team said: 

"We have always looked to support hospices around the UK so when the opportunity came up with St Helena it was a no brainer, with a number of our team knowing first-hand the importance of hospice care and hearing our own client stories in our line of work. The time, effort and determination that goes into keeping St Helena running is remarkable and anything that we are able to do to aid the continuation of their vital service was something that we were very keen to be on board with! "
