Our Goslings children’s fundraising event has raised an amazing £9300 for Gold Geese!
More than 100 children took part this year, including a number of families who have been supported by the charity.
Thank you to everyone who joined us on the day and contributed to the shared fundraising page.
We’re particularly grateful to the Gold families who came along and brought their siblings and friends.
We never expect anything in return from the families we support, and it’s lovely seeing our Gold kids out and playing with their friends.
It’s magic seeing so many kids in bright yellow whizzing along our seafront and showing their support for others who are going through the toughest time.
It’s joy, community and hope, and shows our Gold families how much our community all fly together with them.
One mum explained the impact of Gold Geese support after her son was diagnosed with cancer:
“So many times I felt alone, scared and broken but they were always there. No judgement, no pressure, no stress just understanding and love. Whether it was a friendly catch up when I needed it the most, planned events for kids and adults, respite breaks away or food vouchers they continually saved me. I honestly don’t know how I would have survived the past year without them.”
Thank you to the local businesses and partners who once again rallied behind the event.
Train operator c2c supported families by offering free journeys home for children taking part, and our community partners including Brakes, Co-Op, The Trophy Factor and PMS helped make the day possible.
You can still donate to the shared Gosling fundraising page.
Thank you!
