Sutton Conservative Club each year choose a charity to raise money for. As a little club it amazes me how each year they pull together to support important charities.

In 2013/2014 they broke a few records

They baked, they raffled, they auctioned, they had a race night, played cricket, ate gherkins, waxed bodies, quizzed and body shop partied. 

All in memory of a little boy who died from mitochondrial disease at 16 months old in 2012. Our beautiful Jacob Bear.

One of the two charities they decided the would receive the money raised was The Sick Children's Trust.

They supply home from home accommodation for families when their children are very ill in hospital. They keep families together and give support to parents at a terrible and terrifying time in their lives. 

As parents who were lost and alone when Jacob went into PICU, to be told not to worry about having to leave you child or where you were going to sleep, we will always be grateful. 

So as Jacob's Mummy and Daddy we are amazed, humbled and proud of what they achieved in his memory. £4000 was raised in total split equally between the two.

Thank you so much x
