November Fundraising: Highlighting our community

Our community of fundraisers turned November on it's head with some incredible fundraisers that are bound to inspire you!

Whether your a business or an individual community member, your efforts to fundraise for those affected by leukaemia mean the world to us. Through the things you do we are not only able to provide support and services, but also spread awareness about leukaemia and how many people are affected by it in the UK. We love seeing the creative ways you involve us in your lives, and love learning more about your skills and hobbies along the way!

Craig Barry’s golfing fundraiser

Bransford Golf Club’s Craig Barry raised £17,073.27 throughout 2023 by hosting a number of events including a golf captains day and an auction to raise money in support of those affected by leukaemia. Mr Barry selected Leukaemia Care as his preferred charity after learning about a number of adults and children suffering from blood cancer, including a fellow golf club member who was diagnosed shortly before.The creative inclusion of a ‘charity hole’ when playing golf was particularly exciting, which encouraged golfers to donate if they failed to land their shot on a particular green.
