A huge thank you to the team at Kent Kraft Group for organising a fantastic day at Westerham Golf Club. ⛳️
From the first tee to the final putt, the event brought people together for a great day on the course while fundraising in support of Demelza.
A huge shoutout to an amazing mum supported by Demelza who completed a skydive this weekend! 🪂
Her amazing fundraising efforts is going towards helping fund the vital care we provide to children with serious or life-limiting conditions and their families.
A huge thank you to Alice, who took part in Bubble Rush in June to fundraise for Demelza.
She joined in with the event in memory of her cousin Sebastien, who passed away almost 13 years ago. Their family was supported by Demelza.
To kickstart her fundraising, seven-year-old Alice donated the money the tooth fairy gave her for her very first tooth and she has smashed her £100 target.
Demelza volunteers were treated to an organ recital by professional musician Raymond Lewis.
He is a friend of Geoffrey and Maggie Dawson, who volunteer at Demelza’s Orpington shop and he put on a recital at his home to raise money for the charity.
The audience enjoyed hearing Mr Lewis play pieces by Bach, Howells, Cocker and Vierne and the performance. Donations raised £260. Thank you for your support!
A huge shout out to King John's Nursery and Garden in Etchingham, which has supported Demelza. The nursery has days when Demelza volunteers run their carpark and in return, they give us £1 for every entry.
Area Fundraising Manager Katie Hook said: "We're so lucky to have King John's fundraising for us. Their charity carpark is heavily supported and popular and it's a great way for us to raise awareness about Demelza as well as raising vital funds."
After a busy wedding season, Demelza is highlighting the fantastic support of Bridal Boutique in Chilham.
For more than 10 years, the shop has been donating brand new wedding dresses which are sold in Demelza’s shops.
We’re so grateful to Bridal Boutique for their amazing support of Demelza. It’s such a special thing to be able to offer such beautiful dresses at affordable prices.
Thank you to Visit Chislehurst which held a pumpkin hunt and chose Demelza as its supported charity.
The event was sponsored by Chislehurst Chiropractor Clinic and more than 550 children and families went along to search for their perfect pumpkin.
Demelza had a stall at the event and gave out a sweet treat to all the pumpkin hunters. Thanks so much for choosing us!
We'd like to give a big shout out to Curly's Farm on the Isle of Sheppey, who came and collected the pumpkins and straw we had leftover after our pumpkin patch fundraising event.
Curly's Farm and School, based in Leysdown, is an independent special school and therapeutic working farm for children and young people. When they visit, the children will now get to see pigs George, Gerald and Penny enjoying the leftovers.
It's great to be able to link up with and support other local charities. It ensures nothing goes to waste and the pumpkins were used as enrichment and feed for their pigs. Thanks also to Speedgate in Longfield for donating the straw originally.
