🪩The countdown is on to our 2025 Strictly Glitter Ball! 🪩

Every day this week, we’ll be taking a closer look at each of our FAB-U-LOUS contestants and their partners, a semi-professional dancer from Silhouette Dance Club ahead of the Strictly Glitter Ball which takes place this Saturday at Totally Wicked Stadium and proudly sponsored by Frodshams Solicitors.

Who will dazzle the judges and take home the 2025 Glitterball Trophy? 🏆🪩

Tonight we introduce you to Bethany, Laura and John!

✨Bethany Dolan ✨

"I’m thrilled to be part of this year’s Willowbrook Hospice Glitter Ball! Though I’m not the best dancer, I’m loving every moment. Willowbrook has supported my family through caring for my Great Grandma, Granny, and Mama Marj. I’m grateful for all they do and excited to give back by raising funds and awareness through this event."

Thank you Rathlee Nursery for sponsoring Bethany. Support Bethany's fundraising here: https://willowbrookhospice.enthuse.com/pf/bethany-dolan

✨Laura Moore✨

"For years, I’ve watched the Strictly Glitter Ball and wished I could take part - this year, I finally did! This charity means so much to me after the incredible care my Uncle John received at Willowbrook Hospice. Huge thanks to my sponsors, family, and friends for their support. I hope to make you proud, or at least give you a good laugh!"

Thank you Virtuoso Golf for sponsoring Laura. Support Laura's fundraising here: https://willowbrookhospice.enthuse.com/pf/laura-moore

✨John Haynes ✨

"I’m excited (and a bit nervous) to take part in this year’s Strictly for Willowbrook. This cause is close to my heart, as Willowbrook cared for my mum before she lost her fight with cancer. Beyond dancing, it’s about stepping out of my comfort zone, having fun, and raising vital funds. I hope the evening inspires others to get involved next year!"

🌟 Thank You Thursday 🌟

A HUGE thank you to the amazing team at GXO Haydock for raising a fantastic £3,742 in support of Willowbrook Hospice! This incredible total was raised through not one - but THREE - epic challenges:

🪂 Skydive – Dwayne soared to raise £1,050
💪 Born Survivor – The team that too part raised £1,500
🥾 Snowdon Walk – Brave trekkers brought in £1,192

What an inspiring example of community spirit and partnership!

Suzanne Davies, our Head of Fundraising, said: "It’s absolutely wonderful to be part of this cheque presentation. The dedication and generosity from the GXO team is truly inspiring. Their commitment doesn’t stop here either - they’ve already promised to take on more fundraising challenges next year!"

If your business would like to support Willowbrook just like GXO has, we’d love to hear from you. Together, we can make a real difference.

⭐ Thank You Thursday ⭐

We had an amazing time catching up with the incredible team from Nph Fitness who took on the Born Survivor Challenge recently!

Some were first-timers, while others are seasoned pros-several of these inspiring warriors even conquered the same challenge earlier this year!

Biz shared, “I love Born Survivor and take part every year, so doing it for Willowbrook made perfect sense. This was my second time taking on Born Survivor for the hospice. Willowbrook does a wonderful job, and I’m so proud to support my local community!”

We’re beyond grateful - over the past few years, Team NPH has raised a whopping £9,238.75 for Willowbrook Hospice. Not only do they fundraise for Willowbrook, but they also support our events through donating their services or providing sponsorship. Their dedication truly makes a difference!

And guess what? Biz might even be up for a skydiving challenge next... stay tuned! 🪂✨
