"Chemistry is a fascinating and exciting subject, giving you the knowledge to understand the world of materials that surround us. Add to that the new friendships made and activities enjoyed then you have the perfect formula here at Sir John Deane’s."
More than £3,000 raised for baby unit appeal
A charity appeal has received an early donation ahead of its official la
unch.
The One in Eleven Appeal – based at Leighton Hospital – has been handed more than £3,000 by Sir John Deane’s College, in Northwich.
More than 80 singers from the college’s Adult Education choirs staged a concert to raise the money, which will go towards creating a new Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at the hospital.
Patsy Chuter, Head of Adult Education at SJD, said: “The evening was a fantastic success and we raised an incredible amount. We’re delighted the money is going towards giving the appeal a flying start.”
Around 250 people enjoyed the two-hour spectacular, which raised £1,786 through tickets sales.
A raffle raised £637, which was matched by Barclays Bank, taking the total to £3,061.
Laura Bailey, Fundraising Manager at Mid Cheshire Hospitals Charity, said: “We can’t thank Sir John Deane’s College enough for raising such a fantastic amount.”
