Students Raise Funds for Demelza House

Over the last Academic Year, a number of students and staff have ran a multitude of fund raising events for Demelza House cumulating in the figure of £1,144.51 being handed to their Early Years Team.

Some of the fund raises that have been run include cake sales, Christmas dinner for 30 staff and sponsored walks. This is just a sample of what they did, the money was raised in the main by Cache Foundation students with support from the Diploma year 1 students and individuals from the level 2 course.

Alongside the efforts of the Early Years team, hairdressing students put on a Burlesque show that managed to raise £465, which was also donated to the charity. Details of this event can be viewed here.

Keith Lee, from Demelza House said, "As you know we are currently providing care and support to over 570 families throughout the South East region. None of our aims can be achieved without the ongoing goodwill, support and generosity of our supporters, for which we, and our families, thank you."

Due to the success of the fund raising, similar events will be run throughout the next academic year to aid such a worthy, local, cause.
