UFindUs Raising Funds for Disabled Children

It was a great weekend for UFindUs this weekend when we held the charity fundraiser for a local school for disabled children. Around 120 people turned up for the UFindUs event on Saturday night which was held in Morecambe. Both our staff members and their families as well as many of the families and children who are involved with the school had a fantastic evening which featured a disco and face painting. The real highlight of the evening was the charity auction. We raised around £400 from the auction alone and a further £900 from the ticket money. Barclays Bank also generously offered to double anything that was raised on the night as well so all in all a huge success. Our next one is already planned for September, hopefully by then they will be a bit closer to the £34,000 they need for to achieve their special school status to release the rest of the £306,000 grant they desperately need. Well done to everyone at UFindUs who helped organise and support the event.
