We would like to say a massive thank you to the members of Haxby and Wigginton Methodist Church, for their very generous donation of £500, and a special thank you to Martyn and Gill Holman for suggesting our charity.
We would also like to say a very big, if rather belated, thank you to the members of Wigginton and Haxby WI for the generous donation they collected when we gave a talk.
It's 41 years since Bill and I left Wigginton, but we still feel a strong bond with the church and community and have been overwhelmed by the level of support from our many friends there. 🌈🌻
Royal Liverpool Hospital
We were delighted to be able to present this cheque to the Royal Liverpool Hospital, to enable them to buy equipment which will further their work in finding a cure for eye cancer. As ever, we received a very warm welcome, and it was great to meet up with Lauren, the head of fundraising, again. Since setting up Wendy's Wish, we've donated a total of £38,900 for eye tumour research and had previously raised almost £8,000 with Wendy's help. We'd like to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who has helped us achieve this fantastic sum of money and we look forward to continuing our support for eye tumour research with further fundraising events. 🌈🌻
Publicity Leaflets
We are extremely grateful to Peter, Guy and Steve at Alverton Press for doing a great job with these publicity leaflets, which will allow us to continue spreading the word about the work of Wendy's Wish. If anyone would like a few to give to friends, or to put in their place of work, please message us. Thank you. 🌈🌻
