£1.2 million Honiton hospice opened by British athlete

​Honiton athlete Jo Pavey is officially opening the town's new day hospice Kings House later.

The £1.2 million building, with facilities for patients and their carers, has been up and running since February, but work's been continuing on the garden and signage.

The local community raised £260,000 towards the new hospice, which focuses on social and therapeutic services rather than medical treatment.

The opening ceremony takes place at midday.
