Eddie Farwell speaks to Daphne Skinnard

成人快手 Radio Cornwall has been supporting the charity since January 2008, with listeners raising money in a whole manner of ways - from cross country cycling, coffee mornings and even body waxing.

The hospice, which is to be named 'Little Harbour', will be the very first children's hospice in the county. Little Harbour will be built at Porthpean near St Austell, with plans to open in 2011.听

成人快手 Radio Cornwall's Daphne Skinnard says: "Many, many thanks for your generosity, contributions and interest throughout the year. We have been touched by your support and are delighted we have helped Children鈥檚 Hospice Southwest."

This years campaigning was started by the annual and popular Present Aid sale, in which listeners generously donate unwanted Christmas gifts which are then sold by staff at 成人快手 Radio Cornwall. All funds from the sale are then added to the total donated to the Precious Lives appeal. The 2009 Present Aid also marked the end of 成人快手 Cornwall鈥檚 year of support for Precious Lives.

One of the more unusual campaigns to raise funds involved 成人快手 Radio Cornwall's Laurence Reed recording a cover of the Song 'The Lion Sleeps Tonight' from which CD and Download sales went to Precious Lives.

There were literally hundreds of individual charity events that took place throughout 2009 by people in Cornwall to support Children's Hospice Southwest. These included; charity calendars, Elvis day's, head shaves, walks, fair's and many more.

When speaking about 成人快手 Cornwall's support of the Precious Lives appeal, Eddie Farwell the hospice founder said: "The support from the people of the county of Cornwall has been utterly staggering and loyal."

Finally from everyone at 成人快手 Cornwall, thank you all so much for your continued support in raising over 拢340,000 to build a Children's Hospice, here in Cornwall.
