Paper boy Jack Hartley has added an extra round to his deliveries promoting the Christmas tree collection for East Cheshire Hospice.
Jack has been handing out leaflets on Sunday mornings to help a charity which means a lot to his family.
Grandparents Philip and Olwen Hobson, from Macclesfield, died within three months of each other in 2015 and both were patients at the Hospice.
Mum Carole works for the charity as a bereavement counsellor.
Jack is volunteering by distributing leaflets for three months to earn his bronze certificate as part of the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award scheme.
Jack Hartley out on his rounds delivering leaflets.
Carole said: “Jack wanted to do something for the Hospice because of his nana and grandpa. Since he’s 14, there were limited options for how he could volunteer, so this has worked out quite well.
“I take him out and help him a bit, though he’s used to delivering because of his paper round.
“The Hospice is very special to us as a family and we like to help out and support whenever we can.”
Once the tree collection is over, Jack will deliver leaflets asking for volunteers to help those with dementia.
The Hospice runs a Dementia Befrienders service providing respite for carers and they need more assistance.
