Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice
Hello and welcome to the 2019 edition of our events guide Whether you want to do something you love, or try something you’ve never done before, signing up to one of our events in 2019 is a fantastic way to support local families. From abseiling 160ft down the Owen Building in Sheffield to getting covered in foam in our brand new Bubble Rush, we’ve got something for everyone. #TeamBluebell is all about having fun, trying new things, and making a difference. If you’re ready to join our league of legendary supporters, give us a call on 01909 517 365 or visit www.bluebellwood.org/events.

Having fun makes a huge difference Are you planning on charging down Clifton Park in your very own soapbox, or reaching new heights in our once-in-a-lifetime Wing Walk? When you sign up to one of our events, you’ll be helping children and young adults whose lives are too short. Here’s just some of the ways having fun at our events is making a difference:
£25 £50 £75 £160 £260
Raising just £25 in sponsorship for our brand new Bubble Rush could pay for a child to have a dip in our relaxing spa pool. If you raise £50 for Bluebell Wood when you take on our Mud Madness, you could pay for an hour of music therapy full of noise and laughter. The sponsorship you raise in our Abseil challenge really is life-changing and could pay for an hour of specialist end of life care, so we can be there for parents during unimaginably tough times.
Raising £160 when you speed your creative cart down our Soapbox Derby track could sponsor one of our nurses for a day. If your team raises £260 in sponsorship for our Dragon Boat Race, you could pay for five hours of care for a child in the community, giving their parents some time to relax and unwind.
