Over £30,000 raised for St Ann’s Hospice

As a school we pride ourselves on our dedication to community engagement and charitable initiatives, so we are delighted to announce that our fundraising efforts for St. Ann’s Hospice have now surpassed an outstanding £30,000.

The remarkable milestone was celebrated with the presentation of a £2,000+ cheque to Community Fundraiser Greg Kelly and Advanced Nurse Practitioner Sara Cox of the St. Ann’s Hospice team. The donation represents the culmination of funds raised through the school’s recent Music Showcase, Sponsored 5K and Murder Mystery evening. These events, part of our ongoing support for St. Ann’s New Hospice Appeal, brought together students and staff inspired by a collective commitment to making a positive impact in the lives of others.

St. Ann’s Hospice holds a special place among the school’s chosen charities, with our Bridgewater School community supporting the hospice for many years. The total funds raised for St. Ann’s now stand at an impressive £31,600 and the school is immensely proud of its role in helping the charity achieve its purpose of providing care and support to people living with or affected by life-limiting illnesses.

Greg Kelly, Community Fundraiser for St. Ann’s Hospice, expressed his gratitude: “Bridgewater School has been a strong supporter of St. Ann’s Hospice for many years, and have raised over £30,000, which is an incredible amount. This has helped St. Ann’s Hospice provide care to thousands of people across Greater Manchester, and we are incredibly grateful for the continued support of the school.”

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