Potter House is going above and beyond in its commitment to supporting charitable causes, launching an exciting series of fundraising events to raise money for the Alzheimer’s Society. From washing cars to jumping out of planes, the team is dedicated to making a difference for those affected by dementia.
The first major fundraising event will be the Potter House Charity Car Wash, taking place on Thursday, 17th April, where team members will be rolling up their sleeves to offer:
- £10 for an interior clean
- £15 for a full inside-and-out clean
All funds raised will go directly to the Alzheimer’s Society, helping to support those living with dementia and their families.
But the team isn’t stopping there. In a bold and inspiring challenge, 10 team members will be taking to the skies on 3rd September, jumping from 10,000 feet in a charity skydive. The skydive aims to raise further funds and awareness for the charity, with participants working together to reach their fundraising target of £390 per person. The team has already started rallying support through donation drives, and the skydive itself will be recorded and screened in the care home’s cinema room, allowing residents to experience the adrenaline-filled event from the comfort of their home.
Callum Pearce, General Manager at Potter House, said:
“At Potter House, we are always looking for ways to give back, and what better way to do so than by taking on challenges like our charity skydive for the Alzheimer’s Society? Dementia care is at the heart of what we do, and we want to do everything possible to support those affected. Our team is ready to take to the skies, get our hands soapy at the car wash, and continue to make a difference however we can. We welcome everyone to join us and support this fantastic cause.”
The home has also placed posters around the community to encourage further donations. The team is working hard to raise as much money as possible and hopes that families, friends, and the wider community will get involved in supporting the cause.
Those wishing to support the fundraising efforts can donate via the JustGiving page here.
