Every December, Selecta Systems organises a series of fundraising activities in support of its chosen local charity, Acorns Children’s Hospice. The most recent initiative, which combined a Christmas raffle with a festive jumper day, was coordinated by the company’s marketing department and raised an impressive £3,550 for the charity.
Selecta Systems has supported Acorns Children’s Hospice for several years and continues to recognise the vital role the organisation plays within the local community. Acorns provides specialist palliative care and support for babies, children and young people with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions, as well as ongoing assistance for their families.
Commenting on the continued partnership, Selecta Systems Marketing Manager Mark Walker highlighted the importance of community-backed fundraising. He explained that Acorns relies heavily on donations to maintain its services, particularly following challenges in recent years that have placed additional pressure on funding. “We have always been amazed by the level of care and support Acorns provides, not only to children and young people, but to their families as well,” he said.
Acorns Children’s Hospice delivers a wide range of services, including short breaks, emergency and end-of-life care, therapeutic and psychosocial support, sibling services and bereavement care. Its holistic approach ensures families receive tailored support during some of the most difficult times they may face.
The fundraising effort was coordinated by Selecta Marketing Assistant Danielle Southam, who praised the generosity of colleagues and participants. She said the level of engagement across the business made the events a success and expressed appreciation to everyone who contributed. The total raised will go directly towards supporting the ongoing work of Acorns Children’s Hospice and the families who rely on its services.
