Toy and Cake Sale - Little Ealing Primary School

 

9th October 2008

Little Ealing Primary School held a second hand toy sale/cake sale on Thursday 9th October to raise funds for CRY in memory of Tom Clabburn.  A total sum of £536 was raised. 

 

CRY materials were displayed to further raise awareness, as were the collection shakers.  Notification of the BBC radio 4 broadcast for the 13th October was also given.

The reaction amongst the school community was amazingly strong - non-bakers baked, donations were of a high standard and people were generous beyond expectation.  People were literally just handing over money, or just saying 'keep the change'. 

 

Stories of other children dying under similar circumstances were being told.  Everyone from headmaster to caretaker, teacher and pupil were really touched, especially as it wasn't so long ago that Tom attended Little Ealing. 

 

The school was incredibly supportive, notably Sue Butcher who helped with the sale and crowd control!  The event was organised by Linda Panzer, a friend of the Clabburn family.
