A local charity run by local people for the benefit of local patients and their families, LOROS services welcome more than 2,500 patients each year, including the in-patient unit of 31 beds, a palliative day therapy unit, counselling for patients and their families, clinics, a community nurse specialist team, support services and chaplaincy.
All of these services are provided free to patients and their families.
Volunteers from LOROS are located in Final Whistle on Saturday and are also based around the stadium. Show your support by buying a cuddly toy for £1.
Leicester Tigers chairman Peter Tom CBE said: "It is my pleasure on behalf of the club and all of our supporters to welcome LOROS representatives and volunteers this weekend. We all know what a wonderful service LOROS provides to families in Leicestershire and Rutland."
