Murder Mystery raises valuable funds

Following the success of last year’s Murder Mystery evening, Bridgewater School was delighted to once again host another highly entertaining fundraising event in support of St Ann’s Hospice. This year, the talented staff took centre stage for a lively performance of the comedy whodunnit, Who Killed the Vicar?

With a cast drawn from departments across the school, the evening was filled with mystery, mayhem and plenty of laughter as staff members embraced their roles to create a fabulously fun event for the whole community. Guests had a fantastic time trying to unravel the clues and figure out the culprit, while enjoying an evening of lighthearted entertainment – all for a very worthy cause.

All proceeds from the event were donated to St Ann’s, which provides care and support to people across Greater Manchester affected by life-limiting illnesses, as well as their loved ones and carers. The funds raised from the Murder Mystery evening have been combined with those from last term’s sponsored 5K and Music Showcase, bringing the latest figure to a fantastic £3,000.

Said Mrs Saunders, Marketing and Development Manager at Bridgewater School: “We are incredibly proud of our school community for their ongoing commitment to making a difference, and we look forward to continuing to support St Ann’s Hospice in their vital work.”

As a family focused school, championing and supporting others lies at the heart of everything we do.
