I’m taking on the Northampton Lift Tower Abseil this year, raising vital funds for The McCarthy-Dixon Foundation! This important charity regularly provides vital ongoing support to families at Caroline Chisholm School. Thanks to their donations, we've been able to offer our families much needed extra support. The food bags they provide each half term have helped ease the burden for some of our disadvantaged households and strengthened our sense of community. We're incredibly grateful for their continued generosity and partnership and I'm excited to take on this challenge to help support the charity with its future endeavours.
