Bexhill care home raises £833 for Children With Cancer Fund

A Bexhill-on-Sea care home is celebrating after raising £833 for the Children With Cancer Fund through its ‘A Night at the Races’ charity event. Earlsfield Court, part of Cinnamon Care Collection, welcomed 26 members of the local community for an evening of entertainment and fundraising in support of the Eastbourne‑based charity, which enables children with cancer and their families to have a better quality of life. Daniel Ridgway, Home Admissions Advisor at Earlsfield Court, said: “We are incredibly proud to support such an important cause. Events like these bring people together, create lasting memories, and make a real difference in our community. We remain committed to hosting regular events that support local charities and good causes.” With the event supported by volunteers from the charity, guests enjoyed eight lively races, a raffle packed with prizes, a buffet and an open bar. Ticket sales, raffle entries and generous donations combined to raise the impressive total, with every penny going directly to the charity.

A representative from the Children With Cancer Fund, said: “We had a fantastic evening at ‘A Night at the Races’ with Earlsfield Court care home. The evening raised a brilliant £833. Thank you so much to the team for organising a wonderful event and to everyone who attended and were so generous with their support for CWCF.”

Earlsfield Court regularly hosts events to help support local charities and build strong community connections. One attendee shared their experience, saying: "We have never been to a charity race night before, but what a night! Fun, laughter, cheering our horses on and winning! The organisers were fun to be with and made us all feel welcome. All the money raised goes directly to a fantastic charity for children with cancer. Well done to all who made a great night to remember!”
