Story

Update:

Our DRUMFITT DRUMATHON on the 11th October raised a staggering £27,000!

This far exceeded what I ever imagined would be possible with the event and am so truly thankful to every single person that sponsored the team to take on this challenge.

We will be buying John Eastwood Hospice a cuddle bed! along with an extra £12,000 to put towards the amazing work they do to support patients and their families in their care.

Thank you so much to everyone that took this to their hearts, it is thanks to you all that this was possible.

What our aim was:

On 11th October 2025 over 50 amazing people will join together to take on an epic 5 hour DRUMFITT DRUMATHON in memory of Marie Louise Sparrow.

A usual DRUMFITT class last between 50 minutes - 1 hour so this is an absolutely mammoth task to take on!

All proceeds with be donated to John Eastwood Hospice, with the aim to help them buy a cuddle bed so patients of the hospice can share a bed with their loved ones. These beds cost £15,000 each so we really need friends and family of all of our amazing participants to dig deep and help us raise as much money as possible!

A huge thank you to all of the team and our supporters.
