💜 WE DID IT… 💜

After months of fundraising, planning and one very special night, the moment has finally arrived…

We are absolutely blown away to announce that the Dave Rees Memorial Ball raised…

🎉 £50,059.28 FOR WIGAN & LEIGH HOSPICE! 🎉

Honestly, what a total! 💜

From everyone who bought a ticket, donated, sponsored the event, brought along prizes, entered the raffle, bid in the auction or simply supported our fundraising, thank you.

So many people played a part in making this possible, and it genuinely wouldn’t have been possible without you. Seeing everyone come together on the night made it even more special.

This was a night held in memory of Dave, and we know he would have been incredibly proud to see what everyone has helped us achieve. ❤️

We genuinely cannot thank everyone enough for their generosity, support and for helping us make the night so memorable.

If you would like to donate, you can still do so through our JustGiving page:

💚 WORLD MENTAL HEALTH DAY 💚

“Lived Experiences Heard: Real Voices, Real Change.”

Today is about listening.

Listening to the people who have experienced mental health challenges themselves, understanding that everyone’s journey is different and recognising the importance of giving people the space to share their experiences without judgement.

Sometimes, a conversation can be the first step towards someone feeling heard. Sometimes, simply asking “Are you okay?” can make a bigger difference than we realise.

💭 Real voices matter.
💭 Every experience is valid.
💭 Listening can help create change.

Let’s continue to talk openly about mental health, support one another and make sure people know they don’t have to face things alone.

Take a moment today to check in with yourself, check in with someone else and, most importantly, listen. 💚
