City Hospice has been named as the official charity partner for this year’s Wales Business Awards, as organisers prepare to welcome a full house of leading firms and industry figures to Cardiff next month.

Chambers Wales South East, South West and Mid confirmed the Cardiff-based end-of-life care provider will benefit from funds raised during the awards ceremony, which takes place on May 14 at the Holland House Hotel. The event, a flagship date in the Welsh business calendar, has already sold out.

The Wales Business Awards celebrate the achievements of companies across the country, with 72 Welsh businesses shortlisted across 13 categories.

The ceremony will bring together senior figures from the private sector alongside ministers and other dignitaries.

City Hospice was selected as charity partner after being nominated by members of Chambers Wales.

All money raised on the night will go directly to the organisation, which provides medical and nursing care to people with life-limiting illnesses, including end-of-life care, while also supporting their families.

Nicky Piper MBE, Corporate Partnerships Manager at City Hospice, said: “City Hospice is delighted to be supported by the Welsh Business Awards.

“Not only will this event raise vital funds for the charity, it also will raise the profile of the hospice and bring it to the attention of Wales’ most successful companies.”

Penny Lock, Commercial Director of Chamber Wales, said: “City Hospice is there for the people of south Wales when they really need it, providing palliative and end of life care for those with terminal illnesses.

“They are also there to deal with what comes next for patients and their families. The difficult decisions that have to be made when you are suffering from a life limiting illness and all from the comfort of your own home.”

She added: “As an organisation and as a business community we are proud to be supporting City Hospice.”

Judging for this year’s awards will be carried out by members of the Chambers Wales board alongside representatives from a range of sponsors, including Browne Jacobson, Educ8, People Plus, NatWest Cymru, Menzies LLP, TMPR, Xeinadin, Steer IT, Blake Morgan, iungo Solutions, Welsh Government, Cardiff University Business School and Fleet EV.
