Hide Adhen for the next two days, all proceeds from a bake sale went to the cause.
Three of the butchers took part in an in-store sponsored bike ride and blind auction prizes included turning the shop into a pop-up restaurant, called Louis Re-visited, for the night for 12 people and a cookery class for 10 people on how to cook the perfect steak, with butcher Dan.
The event raised an amazing £2,357.
Delighted HospiceCare staff tweeted: ‘This will provide 10 nights of Hospice at Home specialist care.’
