We had a wonderful day at the Friends of Heltwate Summer Fair. Thank you to everyone who came along and took part in the event. We raised a fantastic £92 which will go towards activity and food costs for our Annual Butlin's Summer Residential Trip 🥳

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who has so kindly donated, shared, and helped spread the word about our JustGiving page. We are truly overwhelmed by your generosity and support.

On 25th July, we’ll be taking 10 incredible young men on a well-deserved weekend break to Butlin’s Skegness—a trip made affordable for families through fundraising and donations like yours.

We’ve got an action-packed itinerary lined up, including exciting paid activities such as visits to The Aviation Museum, bowling, Banger Racing, and a day at Fantasy Island. And of course, no holiday would be complete without some tasty treats—Burger King, classic fish and chips, and a comforting Sunday roast are all on the menu!

We rely heavily on the kindness of our community to make these experiences a reality. Please keep sharing and spreading the word so we can give these fantastic young men a weekend they’ll always remember.
Thank you again for your continued support!

Iʼm raising money to subsidise the cost of leisure activities and meals for our Service Users during their Annual Residential Trip to Butlin’s Skegness.. Support this JustGiving Crowdfunding Page.
