Melissa Menton, a parent at Peel Clothworkers made a suggestion to her children’s primary school about getting involved with the Mannequin Challenge. Dario Leonetti from Bloom Creative very kindly filmed it free of charge.
The film has had nearly 55,000 views on social media. Children were asked to bring in a donation for a local charity. The School Council were asked to nominate some local charities and the parents voted which one they’d like to support. Rebecca House received the most votes.
They also topped up the funds with their Christmas concerts.
Pictured are Anna Jackson, Head teacher, Peel Clothworkers, Aly Moore and Debbie Pitts from Rebecca House team along with Keli Mulholland and her two children Archie (aged 7 and Isobella (aged one) Mulholland. Archie attends Peel Clothworthers and was involved the challenge. Isobella attends Rebecca House. Community Fundraiser for Hospice, Steven Downward was also present.
