Updated 20th August 2016

The Candlelighters Trust is a charity set up to support families with their fight against children’s cancer.  Founded  in 1976 by families and medical staff, Candlelighters continues to help support children with cancer and their families.  They fund research, family holidays, grants, essential additional services within the hospital and vital support for families battling children’s cancer.  Although they are over 40 years into our journey, the aim today is the same as it has always been: to bring support and hope to ordinary families who are facing extraordinary circumstances – http://www.candlelighters.org.uk

This is where we come in ……

A group of Gas Engineers on the facebook group GasChat wanted to make a difference to the lives of sick children with cancer.  One of the founding members of the group, Allen Hart, knows this only too well and started this journey to help The Candlelighters Trust in memory of his daughter Laura.

So, Robinsons Uk have stepped in as well to up the stakes.  We have been in touch with all of our sponsors, partners, contacts, consultants, contractors, manufacturers …. you name it we’ve contacted them and so far we have been overwhelmed with donations of products, goods and services that have allowed us to set up a trade raffle.

For every £5 you donate straight to the Just Giving page https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/cchleeds, a strip of raffle tickets with your name on will be added to the box (although this 2016 we are actually using paper tickets and a cardboard box and please remember to add your name rather than making an anonymous donation). The draw will be held live on Saturday 20th August at the Training Academy at 12noon. All winners will also posted on various social media and website pages if you aren’t around, so don’t worry you won’t miss out on your prize.

Your support is greatly appreciated, Thank you.

Everyone at Robinsons UK and GasChat
