Alpha donates a video wall to Pendleside Hospice

Darwen based Alpha Digital Networks has donated an HD video wall to Pendleside Hospice to help them increase footfall in their shops. 

Based at Arkwright Court, Alpha Digital has been delivering innovative audio-visual solutions to the education and corporate sectors for over ten years. Alpha Digital manufactures, installs and maintains audio-visual and digital signage solutions, including hardware and content.

Alpha has been refurbishing their showroom at their Darwen office to show off their newest products. To make room to accommodate this new equipment, Alpha ran a competition for local charities to win an ex-display HD video wall from their showroom.

Joe Makepeace, managing director of Alpha Digital Networks, said “We believe it is very important to help local charities and we have done a lot of work in the community since we moved from Chorley to Darwen 18 months ago. We wanted to give our ex-display video wall to a local charity, to help them with their work.”

Entrants were asked to tell Alpha how they felt the video wall would benefit their charity for the chance to win the screen. Alpha then had the difficult task of whittling down the entries and finally settled on Pendleside Hospice as the worthy winner. 

Christina Cope, head of corporate fundraising at Pendleside Hospice, said “Alpha Digital will help us put the Fun into Fundraising and get our message of Support, Compassion and Care out to our local community.”

Pendleside Hospice is a fantastic local charity which exists to promote and enhance quality of life for people with life-limiting illnesses, their families and carers; by delivering specialist and holistic palliative care, which addresses their individually assessed physical, psychological, social and spiritual needs.

Joe Makepeace said “We are very proud to have donated this HD video wall to Pendleside Hospice. We hope that the equipment will help the charity.”   

Alpha is determined to continue their work with the local community so that everyone has access to their technology.
