March Charity Month
Giving Back & Getting Involved.
This March, we’re giving back to those who need it most with four weeks of fundraising, special events, and community support. Each week, we’ll be donating proceeds from selected food and drink sales to incredible causes, including Prostate Cancer research, the National Breast Cancer Foundation, the Leukaemia Foundation, and the Terry Knowles Fundraiser. Plus, we’re hosting The Greatest Shave Event on March 16th and a Kids Disco on March 15th, making it fun for the whole family to get involved. We’re also wrapping up the month with a Sporting Sponsorship Night on March 29th, celebrating local teams with live music from Jemma Beech.
Check out all the fundraising and donation opportunities below and how you can have some fun and get involved.
