Successful Open Day at Stapeley Grange

The date of the Open Day finally arrived, the marquees and stalls were all setup then the rain came down!

However this did not deter the large number of visitors to come despite the weather. As a result of the fantastic turnout we were able to raise approximately £3800 which will be an enormous help to the Centre.  The raffle raised £918 with many thanks to staff from Barclays on the day and all the donations of prizes. The name of the spectacular dog was Heidi and she raised £80.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Visitors had a great time browsing the stalls, seeing the education department, playing games, watching the dog shows and choosing from the great selection of cakes.














The finale was the staff Archery competition which enabled us all to have a go with a photo of the Manager on the targets (it is not every day that you get to fire arrows at your boss!).
 
Huge thank you to everyone involved to make it all come together to be a success and to all who came along. The day raised much needed funds and awareness and we will look forward to next year!
