NCB get ready for Christmas with Charity Week
Students raise over £250 for charity
Staff and students at New Campus Basildon got ready for the festive season by holding a week of fundraising events during their annual Charity Week from 14-18 December. The College raised over £250 for it’s chosen charities, Help for Heroes, Cancer Research UK, Great Ormand Street Hospital and Motor Neurone Disease Assosiation.
NCB hosted events for Charity Week including face painting, karaoke and dance mat, cake sales, a staff versus students musical chairs game and fancy dress theme days. Business Studies students organised a fun fete with some great prizes, kindly donated from local businesses.
Representatives from each of the charities will be invited into the College in the New Year to receive the donations collected by the students.
Charity Week adds an extra spark of excitement for staff and students who are already looking forward to Christmas festivities of their own. It is a fun and enjoyable way to end the term whist helping out some extremely worthy causes.
