Corrie's Aunty Pam becomes hospice ambassador

St Ann’s hospice in Manchester have welcomed Kate Anthony as their Ambassador. Kate, who plays Coronation Street's Aunty Pam visited St Ann’s Hospice at the weekend, to see the impressive organisation behind the scenes and was delighted when she was also asked to become an Ambassador for the Greater Manchester based charity.

Last year Kate led 3200 walkers from Manchester Central (G-Mex) through Manchester’s streets at midnight to raise money for St Ann's Hospice, which looks after 3,000 people every year and she will once again don her jogging suit and trainers to front next year’s event on 2nd July 2010.
