Many of our activities throughout the season raise money for charity. We are very pleased to support 'Alice's Escapes' in 2012.
Alice's Escapes is a small charity committed to facilitating free breaks for families with a seriously ill child and is proud to have the lovely Emma Forbes for their Patron.
The idea for Alice’s Escapes came after Alice and her family spent a week being looked after by Luke Tillen, founder of the THHN, based in Devon. All accommodation, plus many outings, meals and activities were given with the compliments of local businesses. After many years of grueling treatments, Alice and her family were able to step back and experience valuable time out. Alice's Escapes aim to give this opportunity to all such families, based in the NorthWest.You can read Alice's blog here.
In 2011 we raised £2500 for Cancer research.
Previous charities to have benefitted include:
Great North Air Ambulance
Cumbria Wildlife Trust
St Mary’s hospice
Ulverston Inshore rescue
And others.... In total, in the last few years, over £15,000.
