Agent raises a record £75,000 in just one night for local hospice

An estate agent has raised an incredible £75,000 in just one night. The money will go towards a local hospice.

Nicholas Humphreys, whose eponymous firm is based in Loughborough, Leicestershire, held a night of music and entertainment in a marquee in the family garden last weekend.

The headline act was Heather Small of the M-People, and another highlight was the charity auction which raised over £35,000.

Humphreys set up the Nicholas Humphreys charity foundation some years ago, and it has so far donated over £160,000 to local charities.

However, the charity has never raised as much in just one night before.

The money will build a new kitchen and conservatory at Loughborough’s Rainbows hospice.

A spokesperson said they were absolutely thrilled that the project can now go ahead immediately.

Many congratulations to the Humphreys family, staff and supporters on an incredible achievement.

    Congratulations to Nick and the team. A huge event which took some organising and certainly deserved such a result for the charity and Rainbows. A fantastic night was had by all.

    Hats off mate and well done!
