We are delighted that Wendy's Wish is now a registered charity.
Pumpkin Sale
A huge thank you to Oliver and Maddy, who sold their homegrown pumpkins after school in October and raised the fantastic sum of £42.30 for Wendy's Wish. Well done guys!
Bake Sale
We were really grateful to, and very proud of, Elise and Matilda for organising a cake stall at school in aid of Wendy's Wish and Cancer Research UK. During the two days they raised the amazing total of £147.90 to be shared between the two charities. Very well done girls for having such a great idea and for doing a fabulous job of selling the cakes. We would also like to say a big thank you to everyone who donated cakes and to all those who bought them.

Music and Laughter
We would like to say another huge thank you to everyone involved in the Music and Laughter concert which took place at the Forum in July in memory of Diane Henry and Wendy. The wonderful total of £3,100 was raised and this was shared between The Dales School Hydrotherapy Pool and Wendy's Wish.
White Tie and Diamonds Ball
It's hard to know where to start thanking everyone who made the White Tie and Diamonds Ball such a success. Judging by all the wonderful messages from people, everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves and we are overwhelmed by your generosity in helping us to raise the truly staggering figure of £25,757!! Some of this will go a long way to helping with Eye Tumour Research and the rest will be used to help cancer patients and their families.
