On February 13th our
family and I spent the
day at Lakeside shopping
centre creating
Awareness and raising
funds for this important
charity and in memory of
a loved one. We raised
funds by selling our
handmade cupcakes, CRY
merchandise with books
donated by our friends
an family. We also ran
Lucky Dips and Tombola
tickets offering some
great prizes for all
ages.
During our day we met a
lot of people who have
been affected by SADS or
other cardiac issues
which highlights the
importance of CRY and
their services. We also
met people who had dealt
with CRY before, along
with a volume of people
who had not heard of the
charity before today.
In total we raised
£450.00 at Lakeside,
with another £235.00
donated online by
friends, family and
colleagues.
It is truly heart
warming to see so many
people donate and help
us raise £685.00
in memory of my dear
brother Graham Button.
So we would like to say
a big thank you to all
our friends and family
who helped us make this
day successful. Along
with a big thank you to
Lakeside for providing
us a great location to
hold this event.
The Button Family
