Sanderson Arcade team raise £5,000 for Tiny Lives
28 November 2022
The team at Sanderson Arcade in Morpeth have raised a fantastic £5,000 for local charity, Tiny Lives, after organising several fundraising events since 2019.
Tiny Lives supports premature and sick newborn babies and their families by supplying items, funds, staff specialists and support to the RVI Neonatal Unit in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, helping to make the Neonatal experience a little easier and more comfortable for parents, babies, siblings and family.
The independent charity receives no government funding, and they need to raise £350,000 a year to maintain their services.
The cheque was handed over by the Arcade team to Rachel Hardwick who is the Fundings and Partnerships Officer at Tiny Lives.
Lottie Thompson, Centre Manager at Sanderson Arcade, said: “We are delighted with the amount which has been raised and we’d like to say a huge thankyou to everyone who has helped us to reach this target. Every penny raised will go direct to making a real difference to premature and sick babies and their families.”
The Arcade team have announced their new charity, Calmer Therapy, which they will be supporting until Christmas 2024.
Calmer Therapy supports children with additional needs and disabilities and their families. The charity has centres in Stobhill, Morpeth and Berwick and their services cover the whole of the North East and Scottish Borders.
