MORE.. LATEST NEWS About UsThe Childrens Xmas Wish List started approx 5 years ago, we held a dinner / auction at the Crown Inn, Stockton in Warwickshire which looking back on it was a brilliant evening as we hired a Marquee which we set up on the carpark, sold 200 tickets and raised £5000,
We then asked sick Children in Coventry & Warwickshire with Cancer & other life threatening illnesses what they would like whilst they are being treated for there illnesses, the list was endless and there is no better feeling than giving Sick Children presents they want and seeing smiles all round
We have moved on since then and hold different annual events each year, in 2009 we held a St Patrick’s day golf day which was another enjoyable day raising approx £4000 Then we held another golf day in October raising another £3500
In 2010 we were finding it hard to ask people to take time out of work and spend cash whilst trying to raise funds for the children, due to the recession and many people losing there jobs etc, So my wife Becky and I decided to do a sponsored Skydive instead, yes 13000 ft, what an awesome feeling, we raised between us just under £6000. I then decided to organise a Christmas Dinner evening / Bash at the Royal Court Hotel in Coventry which again sold 242 tickets raising just over £4000 on the evening, we were lucky to have had Bob Hall from Sky Sports to host our Auction & Raffle on the evening,
You can also help us by donating on the link, you will see on the home page to the just giving website we have set up to take care of any cash we raise between us which will go straight to the charity account
I would like to thank you all for taking the time to read all about what we are doing on an annual basis for the Very Sick Children In Coventry & Warwickshire
Kindest Regards from all the trustee’s
