Bridgewater School raises over £30,000 for St. Ann's Hospice

Bridgewater School, renowned for its unwavering dedication to community engagement and charitable initiatives, is proud to announce that their fundraising efforts for St. Ann’s Hospice have now surpassed an outstanding £30,000. 

The remarkable milestone was celebrated with the presentation of a £2,000+ donation to the St. Ann’s Hospice team which represents the culmination of funds raised through Bridgewater School’s recent Music Showcase, Sponsored 5K and Murder Mystery evening. These events, part of the independent school’s ongoing support for St. Ann’s New Hospice Appeal, brought together students and staff from across the school, inspired by a collective commitment to making a positive impact on the lives of others.

Bridgewater School nurtures a culture of giving and community service, evident in the enthusiastic participation of pupils from Kindergarten through to Sixth Form. The school’s emphasis on charitable fundraising as a vital component of its extra-curricular and enrichment programme has resulted in a united effort that goes beyond academic achievements, to the consistent benefit of charitable foundations both at home and abroad.

St. Ann’s Hospice holds a special place among the school’s chosen charities, with the Bridgewater School community supporting the hospice for many years. The total funds raised for St. Ann’s Hospice now stand at an impressive £31,600 and the school is immensely proud of its role in helping the charity achieve its purpose of providing care and support to people living with or affected by life-limiting illnesses.

Greg Kelly, Community Fundraiser for St. Ann’s Hospice, expressed his gratitude: “Bridgewater School has been a strong supporter of St. Ann’s Hospice for many years, and have raised over £30,000, which is an incredible amount. This has helped St. Ann’s Hospice provide care to thousands of people across Greater Manchester, and we are incredibly grateful for the continued support of the school.”
