On 22 January, we had the official handover day which was attended by one of our new Non-Executive Directors – Heather Mullin, seen here with the short blonde hair and orange coloured boots. We would like to thank Heather for attending the presentation, it was lovely for our residents and staff to meet you. How we found the funds We managed to buy this brilliant interactive ‘magic table’ in part due to the JustGiving campaign we set up last year to help buy this wonderful tool for our residents to enjoy. Some of the money was donated by the families of our residents and we would like to extend our gratitude to them and to the others listed below too. If it wasn’t for these fabulous people, we would not have been able to purchase this amazing piece of equipment. Others who donated were: Hayley and Sean who took part in the Hastings marathon and got the ball rolling by raising funds of approx. £3,000! Leonie Glinski, who is the daughter of our manager Karen, ran up the Matterhorn and raised £800! The family of the late K Bailey donated £2,000! Various other people gave smaller donations which helped to take the total up to the amount we needed to buy this interactive tool. Sally and Angie raised the remaining funds through fetes/gifts and the local Mayor’s day they attended. Thank you to everyone who donated, we couldn’t have done it without you.
