Celebrate St. Rocco’s 40th Year with Our Easter Chicks Campaign!

This Easter, join us in spreading joy and supporting St. Rocco’s Hospice by taking part in our annual Easter Chicks Campaign. Let’s make this year extra special as we celebrate 40 years of care.

  • Knit or crochet an Easter chick.
  • Donate a chocolate egg to fill your chick.
  • Help us reach our target of 1,500 chicks to support hospice care.
  • Sell the Chicks at your school, cafe, shop

🧶 Want to get involved locally?
Stitch Station in Warrington has a wonderful knitting group that would love you to join them in creating these adorable chicks!

Last year, your tremendous efforts helped raise over £2,000. Let’s aim for £3,000 this year to make an even more significant difference.

Gather your friends, family, and community and start crafting today!
