Spring is in the air, and there is no April Fool’s here! From new fundraising initiatives to seasonal treats and special events, there’s plenty happening this month.
Read on to catch up on the latest updates and see how you can get involved this April!
A huge thank you to Glen for setting up a GoFundMe page in support of Swanley Therapy Centre!
Every donation helps us get closer to our £20,000 fundraising target for this year, allowing us to continue providing our subsidised therapies for those who need them most.
It means a great deal to us when members and their families step forward to help in this way, and we’re incredibly thankful to Glen for taking the initiative.
Your support, whether big or small, makes a real difference. Sharing Glen’s page with friends, family, or your social networks also helps spread the word and brings us closer to our goal.
Last chance for our Easter Raffle! Tickets are available from the Centre for £2 a strip, giving you a chance to win while supporting our fundraising efforts. Every ticket purchased goes directly towards helping the Centre.
Don’t miss out! The raffle will be drawn on Thursday 2nd April!
Lesley has been busy again, and her latest creations are perfect for Easter! This edition features charming Easter characters, including Creme Egg cosies complete with a Creme Egg inside!
Every purchase supports Swanley Therapy Centre and our ongoing fundraising goals, so by buying a cosy or two, you’re helping make therapies more accessible to our community. Lesley’s designs are unique, colourful, and full of seasonal cheer—perfect for brightening up your home or gifting to loved ones.
Pop by the Centre to see the full Easter collection and take home a little piece of handmade joy. Supplies are limited, so grab yours before they hop away!
We want to extend a thank you to everyone who attended our MS Open Day. Your presence and support helped make the day a real success, and it was wonderful to see so many people engaging with our therapies, asking questions, and enjoying the demonstrations.
A big thank you also goes out to our volunteers, staff and the therapists who joined us who helped make the day run smoothly.
The Open Day reminded us once again of the strength and generosity of our community. Together, we continue to raise awareness, share knowledge, and support those living with MS—and every visit, conversation, and donation counts.
We’re excited to confirm that this year’s Summer Fete will take place on:
SATURDAY 20th JUNE
Mark your calendars and get ready for an afternoon of fun, games, and fundraising!
At the recent STC Open Day, we said that we wish to be a hub for services to our members. One service sought is for counsellors that specialise in MS support and we have one such counsellor that would seem to meet requirements.
The contact is Michaela Hoskins and she is keen to provide a service to the MS community. Michaela is based in Cheltenham and therefore uses telephone, and online video services to provide her very competitively priced service (initial calls starting at £25). If you wish to experience a session the best way of making contact is through email (though you can try calling and leaving a voice message for Michaela if she is working).
