We hope this newsletter finds you well and that you’re enjoying the summer season. July is here! Bringing with it news from our Summer Fete.

Thank you to all who joined us at our spectacular Summer Fete! We had a fantastic day filled with delicious food, captivating entertainment, vibrant craft stalls, and thrilling competitions.

We are thrilled to announce that, with your incredible support, we have already raised an impressive £2,045! This achievement wouldn’t have been possible without your generosity and commitment to our cause. We’re still accepting donations, and contributions are continuing to come in. Together, we can make an even greater impact and reach our fundraising goals.

Thank you for your ongoing support.

Even if you couldn’t attend our Summer Fete, you can still contribute to our fundraiser! Your support means a lot to us, and every donation makes a difference.

We’re still a little short of our target for this year. Help us reach this year’s goal!

Summer Fete Fundraiser

We are thrilled to announce that Stephanie Lomas is embarking on an incredible journey to raise funds for Swanley Therapy Centre. Her motivation stems from her father, David, who battles Multiple Sclerosis and relies on Oxygen Therapy for his condition.

Stephanie says: “Swanley MS Therapy is a place my dad goes to every week for treatments that make a huge difference in his mobility and thinking. But something else that’s amazing about the Centre is the sense of belonging he gets. Being around others who are also living with MS helps him feel less alone, and he learns a lot from others’ experiences too. I’m incredibly thankful for the support Swanley MS Therapy has given my dad, and I want to give back by raising funds.”

You can show your support for Stephanie’s triathlon challenge and contribute to her fundraising efforts by sponsoring her through the following link.

Every donation, no matter the amount, will make a difference and help us continue providing valuable services. Thank you for your generosity and for joining us in supporting Stephanie on her journey towards making a positive impact in our community.

Together, let’s rally behind Stephanie as she swims, cycles, and runs towards our fundraising goals!
