Six members of our dedicated team have recently taken part in some extreme fundraising for Derian House!

Starting with #DiveForDerian, first up to the skies was Matt Mears, our Preston shop manager, who jumped out of a plane in July’s event and raised £493. Following in his footsteps this September was Head of Income, Marketing and Communications Caroline Taylor, and our Finance Assistant Dawn Fraser-Cistaro, who raised £2,005 and £407 respectively. Our Leyland shop manager Lyndsey was also due to jump, but due to bad weather her dive was postponed.

Taking on the Great North Run last weekend were our Wellbeing and Play Team Leader, Katie McNally, and Family Counsellor, Rachel Johnston, who each raised £1,000 and £305.

Last but not least, our Lottery Manager Angela Towers FINALLY reached the summit of Ben Nevis after multiple battles with the weather which called it off in previous months. She managed to raise £711 for Derian House in the process.

Well done guys, you’ve all absolutely smashed it! If you’d like to take on a fundraising challenge for Derian, please speak to our Community Fundraising Team up in Vinten Place.
