Christmas Fundraising

Throughout December, an outstanding total of £44,112 was raised through a series of events throughout December, including performances from local choirs and community groups.

Fundraising efforts at Meadowhall also included the £1 from the sale of every Luke Horton limited-edition Meadowhall gift card being donated to support charity partner Roundabout, with more than 7,300 giftcards purchased by shoppers in the months leading up to Christmas.

Roundabout helps over 300 young people aged 16-25 every day, by providing shelter, support and training to help equip them with life skills.

And funds raised from sales of personalised twinkling star Christmas tree decorations purchased at the centre were donated to Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice, which cares for children and young adults with life-shortening or life-threatening conditions, and their families.

Alongside this, a wide number of local charities will also benefit from the funds raised by the choirs and community groups who performed in centre during the Christmas period.
