PRESS
RELEASE The energetic members of The Christie¹s Tender Loving Care ladies' Presented to Christie's Regional Appeals Officer Jacky Plant, the cheque represents TLC's total for the past 12 months and brings to more than £70,000 the amount they have raised overall for the Manchester cancer centre. Recent events show that Prestwich-based TLC certainly know how to put the fun into fundraising. They've held discos, a race night, bingo sessions, sponsored walks, 'chocolates and flowers' and makeup and handbags evenings. Forthcoming highlights include a sponsored walk in Heaton Park on July 8 and a Weakest Link quiz night on July 15. Said Jacky Plant: "Tender Loving Care really live up to their name. They've supported the hospital for several years yet always manage to come up with new and interesting fundraising ideas. They're a great group to work with. TLC raised money for the hospital before the centenary appeal was launched and say they fully intend to carry on after that particular appeal reaches its target - and that won't be long now." Christie's is very close to achieving £25million during this, the hospital's 100th birthday year. The money is financing a series of projects to bring about advances in cancer treatment, research and care. Ends |
