Halloween is pretty low key for us this year, as we're working something important for the rest of 2026.... It’s pretty likely that all our lives will be affected by dementia and for some of our customers, it’s a very current, and troubling, experience. So when our lovely customer, Mandy, suggested a festive fundraiser for Dementia UK, we got right behind her plans.
Then when Trev and Julie fixed a date for this year’s Mushy Pea Night with the same charity in mind, it all came together.
Next Friday, 6th November kicks off the fundraising with donations for Nottingham’s delicacy and we’ll have raffle tickets ready to pick up. The prizes Mandy is collecting in are looking absolutely fabulous, but if there’s anything you want to donate as well, there’s room for more! We’ll be bringing it all together with a festive funday on Sunday 20th December for the raffle draw and a host of other fun and games all for charity - keep an eye out for more info on this coming soon....
Dementia UK is the specialist dementia nursing charity that is there for the whole family, working towards a day where no one has to face dementia alone. Their specialist nurses, known as Admiral Nurses, provide life-changing advice and support, to anyone affected by dementia, whenever it is needed. Sounds to us like something super valuable to have around, for now and for those of us who’ll need it in the future.
