Story
On June 8th 2018, i along with the Cashino Area 14 Managers & staff, Area Manager, Jack Easterbrook & Tanning Manager Kellie Poundall will be walking from Gainsborough Cashino to Retford Cashino.
An easy task you would think, but then imagine the most unfit bunch, one with a dodgy knee, who may have to pushed round in the wheel chair we are taking with us & get them walking 20K.............ughhhhh, do we have to? YES, its for CHiPs, all of a sudden everyone wants to walk, and why????
They know what a worthwhile cause this is
They know how tear jerking it is watching a child be presented with a new wheelchair, specially built for them & giving them a whole new lease of life.
CHIPS was originally founded on behalf of the UK Gaming Industry, in order to raise funds to purchase specialised powered wheelchairs for youngsters with varying disabilities.
CHIPS provides wheelchairs for children who would otherwise have no way of getting around on their own. CHIPS funds the wheelchairs that the NHS cannot, or will not, provide and that the parents cannot afford to buy.
Thanks to the UK Gaming Industry, CHIPS has raised £1,750,000 and has presented over 500 wheelchairs to youngsters.
There are, however, many more children who need our help.
Each powered wheelchair for a child can cost as much as £6,500 and will be custom-made for each youngster according to their needs – even the colour can be at their request.
Cashino & Beacon have helped substantially, donating funds through their own golf days and many varied, and sometimes crazy, fundraising events.
