Local Charity launches Easter Eggstravaganza for 8th year!

    The Henry Allen Trust is running its annual Easter Eggstravaganza appeal for the 8th year and they need your help.

    Every year Team Henry visits hospitals in our region delivering Easter eggs, confectionary, arts and crafts, and games to children and their families spending Easter in hospital. Can you help The Easter Bunny and Team Henry spread some of Henry’s happiness by donating to our Easter Eggstravaganza?

    They are looking for local businesses, schools, and individuals who would like to support them this Easter. Is this you?

    About the Henry Allen Trust:

    The Henry Allen Trust was founded in memory of Henry Allen who lost his battle to Stage 4 high risk MYCN Amplified Neuroblastoma, a childhood cancer. In October 2013 to bring 'happiness' to children and families battling with childhood cancer, Dawn, Mark, and everyone involved with the trust have worked tirelessly to ensure no family is alone during their journey.

    The Henry Allen Trust is there for these families from initial contact, all the way through the rest of their journey, be it treatment, remission, or palliative/end of life care and beyond. The Trust does this by providing treats and wishes, financial assistance, and emotional support to the families as well as holding a monthly THAT Support group where families come together to enjoy quality time with each other and share their experiences. The Henry Allen Trust also works with hospitals providing care packs, toys, arts and crafts, ward visits, and even specialised equipment.

    Every year The Henry Allen Trust holds various events to FUNdraise vital funds to allow the trust to continue its work supporting children, teens, young adults, and their families battling childhood cancer.
