Fundraising stars

Advancing up a fundraising gear

Gloucester–based Advanced Removals and Storage has named National Star as its charity of the year. The team took part in the Sunrise Walk. They will also support the charity by donating a cash sum for every move they complete in 2024 and are encouraging their customers to do the same.

Eyes down, look in for a great fundraising evening

Thanks to Emma Goodman in Hereford who organised a bingo night for more than 100 people in aid of National Star recently, raising £1,136. Emma knows people who benefit from our services and this compelled her to support us.

Hoburne names National Star as its Charity of the Year

Thank you to holiday company Hoburne who have donated an incredible £2,142.70 to National Star. They will be fundraising for us during 2024 with a variety of events and are donating £1 for every holiday booking over this period.

Corporate sporting event success

Paul Garlick worked at a bar in Andorra when he met National Star students on the ski experience. He never forgot their ‘can do’ attitude. When he returned to work in the UK he took part in a corporate challenge for National Star, raising an impressive £2,035. Well done Paul!

Gloucestershire Hauliers support National Star

The Gloucestershire Hauliers’ Association has raised a stupendous £3,500, following their annual dinner dance. It’s thanks to supporters like the Hauliers that we can continue to invest in specialist equipment and other resources needed by students and residents.

Corporate support at its best

Digital Marketing agency Wagada raised £3,000 for National Star after they named us as their charity of the year. They undertook a series of fundraising challenges during the year including tackling the 24–mile Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge as well as encouraging training customers to donate money in lieu of paying for course fees. Thanks so much for your support.
