WORCESTER wine lovers raised more than £2,100 for charity.

More than 120 people attended a wine-tasting event hosted by wine critic Philippe Boucheron. The event, held at RGS Worcester, The Tything, Worcester, was a chance for people to taste wines while celebrating St Richard’s Hospice’s 25th anniversary.

Mr Boucheron, pictured far right, who was one of the first governors of the hospice, said: “St Richard’s has grown into a most valuable service. I am proud of being a small part of that beginning and this tasting was a way for me to put something back into the community.”
