Our story begins after the very sad night in May 2017, at the Manchester Arena. We all witnessed on the news in the aftermath, the amazing work all the staff at the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital carried out.......

We are 9th Eccles Brownies, where I am privileged to be Brown Owl. In January 2018 our Brownies produced a Manchester Bee Badge to raise funds for the children's hospital, this was a charity the brownies felt they wanted to support!

Since the start of this year, we have sold 6000 bee badges to girlguiding members and others, starting in Greater Manchester, leading to all places around the world!!! We have been overwhelmed with the support.....

On the 20th November 2018, 9th Eccles Brownies will be presenting the cheque for the funds raised from the badge to the hospital..... however the amount currently stands at £4,500 which we know is an amazing amount, but we would LOVE just to have one final push and try to achieve the magical £5,000!!!!!!

Our plea to all our friends is, if you are able to help our Brownie unit reach their goal, for this fabulous cause which we know is close to everyone's heart......

In appreciation, 9th Eccles Brownies.....
