Altius Group reveals final score for Brian House

A leading business broker has been donating to charity during the 2023/24 football season. Altius Group’s chairman has now revealed the final sum donated to Brian House Children's Hospice, Blackpool.

Born and raised in Newcastle, Paul Miller has been an unwavering supporter of Newcastle United FC and enjoys giving back to his local communities.  This season, Paul promised to donate £100 per goal scored by the team in each of their Premier League, European matches, Carabao Cup, and FA Cup matches.

With a total score of 102 goals, Altius has donated £10,200, split between Newcastle Foodbank and Brian House Children’s Hospice, a charity chosen by staff from the firm’s Preston HQ.  

Brian House specialises in supporting and caring for vulnerable and/or seriously ill children. The hospice offers respite care, from daycare to longer stays, family group support, and expert end-of-life care and bereavement support. All services are free, but with annual running costs of over £1.4 million, it relies on community support.

Janet Atkins, corporate partnership manager at Brian House Children Hospice, was delighted with the result: “This generous donation of £5,100 is greatly appreciated and will make such a difference to our services.”

Reflecting on the season, Paul shared his pride in contributing to the charity: “A rollercoaster season of real highs and lows, but for me personally, I have enjoyed some great trips and games with the added benefit of seeing us score so many goals and contribute to fantastic charities.”
