Thanks to all those that attended our Toys & Treats event on Sunday. The event was lots of fun and it was great to see so many people come out to support our charity and the animals at Danaher!
We are so appreciative of your kindness and the many gifts left for the animals - so many in fact we may even need a bigger Christmas tree next year! We are sure the animals will love their new toys and enjoy a few treats too whilst spending their Christmas in our care waiting for a new loving home to call their own.
Thank you also to Father Christmas (pictured below with fans) for putting in an appearance. We are hoping he enjoyed himself so much that he will make an appearance for us again next year, and additionally to our amazing volunteers, who help make it all happen.
Finally, congratulations to all winners of our Xmas Raffle drawn today! We will be in contact as soon as possible so you can choose your prize.
There was plenty of fun, songs and laughter on Sunday, as a five-strong cast of actors from British Pantomimes staged family-favourite Cinderella to raise funds for Danaher.
Three outstanding performances in front of packed audiences of all ages at Wethersfield Village Hall, saw around £2,000 raised from ticket sales and donations that will go towards helping more animals at Danaher. Huge thanks to all the volunteers for their help and support on the day, as well as their efforts in baking and donating some of the most fabulous cakes seen this side of pantoland.
The fabulous pantomime featured Sam Hocking as Buttons, Alex Christian Lucas as Prince Charming, Kassie Kardos as the Fairy Godmother, Marisa Foley as the Wicked Stepmother (aka Lady Gaga Woodham Ferrers), and Martha Cranston in the title role of Cinderella. A shout-out too, to their tour manager Ben for his help on the technical side.
A big thank you from all the Danaher team to British Pantomimes and especially to Kev Orkian and Sarah Brown for their support.
Lastly, a huge round of applause for Debbie, Charlotte and Stewart from Wethersfield Village Hall who kindly gave their time and to the committee for their generous support.
