Charities
At Feltonfleet we are extremely proud to be a community that supports a number of national charities and charity events throughout the year. In addition, we select a local fundraising organisation as our nominated school charity and the Year 8 Charities Committee works hard to lead a programme of activities.
This year our chosen charity is: Cherry Trees
Thank you to the Friends of Feltonfleet who invited nominations - Cherry Trees was voted for unanimously.
Cherry Trees is based in East Clandon and provides home-from-home, specialist short-break respite visits for children and young adults aged 0-19 with a range of complex disabilities including learning, physical and sensory impairments. Please do click on the image to visit the website for a closer look at their work.
As well as supporting our chosen charity, we also support a number of national charity days, including the annual Macmillan Coffee morning which raised almost £1,000 this year. We also look forward to our Quiz Night for the Royal Marsden Cancer Care, which will take place later in the year.
Last year, pupils, lead by the Charities Committee and supported by the Friends of Feltonfleet and staff members, raised over £40,000 for charity through a calendar of events, from cake sales and mufti days, to Design Technology produce sales and summer fairs.
