With Spring in the air and Easter just a few weeks away, we are egg-cited to launch the St Barnabas Bunny Hop - perfect for nurseries, childminders and schools.

This free-to-register fundraiser will provide you and your bunnies with all the support and resources you need to plan the big Hop. Pick a date between 22nd March and 16th April to hold your Bunny Hop and Barney will deliver a FREE pair of fluffy bunny ears for each child (and one lucky adult)!

Fundraising couldnt be easier! We will ask your nursery, group or school to set up a JustGiving page where supporters can make a donation in the weeks towards your Hop, and every setting who has set up their JustGiving page by 16th March will receive a Bunny Hop Easter Egg Hunt kit, including chocolate eggs and bunny footprints.

We have set a sponsorship target of £5.10 for each child. This would provide a patient receiving Hospice at Home care with hot and cold packs to help soothe swollen joints and offer pain relief from aching muscles. Even the smaller donations can make a big impact for a patient, which is why any sponsorship raised will be gratefully received.

On the day you can choose to hop around your nursery, garden or bounce across the school playing field.

Barney will also be making some special appearances on social media, so make sure you follow #BunnyHop to see what Barney is up to next.

To say a big thank you, Barney will send a video message after your Hop and a downloadable certificate too!

Registrations close on 15th March, or earlier if the event is full. So, what are you waiting for? Hop to it and register.
