Bacchanalians Hockey Club achieve their target of support for the local children's Hospice

by isleofman.com 5th January 2017

Bacchanalians Hockey club recently completed its annual fundraising target of ?3,000 and were delighted to present the funds to the Rebecca House staff.

The club, who are raising awareness of the charity, recently arranged for the Rebecca House logo to be embroidered on all club members playing shirts, whilst organising and completing fundraising events such as sky dives, charity auctions, and social events at their Cronkbourne clubhouse.

The partnership has already seen a very successful start to the year for the Tromode side, with their mixed “A” team achieving a treble in the outdoor league and cup, as well as the indoor competition.

The club would like to thank key sponsor Ramsey Crookall, and associative sponsors Cains, Canada Life and Manx Business Solutions for all their support, allowing the club to concentrate on charity fundraising.

The club are already planning their next fundraising events and are looking forward to hitting our target of ?3,000 for the next two years.
Presenting a cheque of ?3,000 and a framed replica shirt to Rebecca House were club members Jamie Brown, Emma Leeming, Dave Whiting and Abbey Magee. Representing Hospice (which includes Rebecca House) were Chief Executive Anne Mills, nurse Lauren Harrison holding Abaigh Sutton, aged 3, along with community fundraiser Steven Downward.

Anne Mills thanked the local hockey club for all their endeavours for the local charity.
