Supporting Festive Fundraising In Eastbourne

The Brewers Foundation were thrilled to support fundraising in Eastbourne, raising money for some worthy causes during the festive season. Don and Abby McPhee reached out to Brewers to sponsor three local events that the local community could also get involved with.

For Children in Need, Don and Abby hosted an official fundraiser at Eastbourne Town Hall, with students from local schools and colleges taking part in a whole host of entertainment! There was also a giant raffle featuring wonderful prizes that were donated by local businesses…Pudsey himself even made an appearance! A grand total of £4,000 was raised for Children in Need that will go to a range of good causes that support young people and their families in the UK and beyond.

On the 14^th of December, the Christmas Charity Party Night featured a range of entertainment, a raffle and festive refreshments, all in aid of St Wilfred’s Hospice. The hospice is dedicated to enabling people in Eastbourne, Seaford, Hailsham, Uckfield and Heathfield to live well at the end of life. The event has been running for seven years and has always been a huge success, with this year being the best yet!

Also running for 7 years, Don and Abby will be holding a Father Christmas Special in the local shopping centre, where school pupils come together to sing Christmas carols. This year they will be raising money for the Eastbourne Mayor's Charities, Chaseley Trust and Leaf Hall Mental Health.

Don and Abby have been fundraising for 13 years and in that time have raised an incredible £380,000 for local families, local and national charities. It was a pleasure to be able to support these events and we can’t wait to see what Don and Abby have in store next year!
