Red Nose Day Celebrations

River View staff, visitors and residents collected donations totalling £38.00 for Red Nose Day this year, with 1 person winning a wonderful chocolate fountain as a thank you for their contribution over the weekend.

On the day itself, staff were asked to wear red and our Business Development Manager, Debi went around our home offering fresh strawberries to all of the people living with us. During previous conversations, many residents had mentioned how much they loved this fruit and as their bright red colour matched the Red Nose day theme, we thought it would be the perfect treat.

As Debi served the strawberries, she talked with everyone about the many fundraising stunts that people had taken part in over the years to raise money for the charity. Their favourite story that Debi mentioned involved someone sitting in a bath of custard for several hours to raise money for the Red Nose Day charity ,which bought a laugh to many people around our home.

Thank You once again to everyone who contributed to the day.
