2025 Fundraising
Thank you to everyone who has supported the groups fundraising efforts in 2025.
We kicked off 2025 with our biggest ever Easter Egg Hunt at Sankey Valley Park which was supported by the Land Trust. This special event raised over £1700 for the group. On the day we welcomed hundreds of visitors who took part in the hunt, plus enjoyed the always popular chocolate tombola, cake sale and bouncy castle.
This was rapidly followed by our first ever Paint & Sip event which was hosted by Dani from Paint & Sip by Dani. We are looking forward to hosting more of these in the future. Thank you to the lovely people who joined us and helped raise a total of £350.
Each year we host our annual Spring Plant Sale which is kindly supported by Woodend Nursery and is team effort by 5/6 Scout groups in the local area who deliver plants to homes across the WA5 postcode area. This year the sale was overseen by our very own Ian Skilling who expertly organised hundreds of orders for thousands of plants! Raising over £1000 for the 10th Warrington Scouts alone, this event was a big success!
Then in the Autumn/Winter term we raised over £2000 through our annual Winter Plant Sale, Christmas Raffle and with the return of our Christmas market including our always popular chocolate tombola, hosted at the Scout Hunt alongside the artisan market hosted at the Woodlands pub across the road.
With over 25 prizes up for grabs our top prizes were: £100 cash, British Airways Wine Flyer mixed case of wine, £50 San Lorenzo voucher, a family ticket to see Warrington Wolves, £20 Bombay 8 voucher, £15 Artful Potter voucher and a Tropic Skincare hamper donated by friend of the group Tropic with Andrea. Plus lots, lots more!
We are already planning for 2026, so keep your eyes peeled for our next event!
