50,000 raised and counting! 🎉

We’re incredibly proud to celebrate a major milestone for The Bradbury Foundation, which has now raised £50,000 in just two years.

In that time, the Foundation has supported 30 different projects, benefiting more than 10,000 people across Lincolnshire and the East Riding of Yorkshire, with over £27,000 already awarded in grants.

A huge thank you to everyone who has supported, donated, volunteered and helped us reach this fantastic milestone. Every pound raised helps us support more brilliant projects making a real difference in our local communities.

We’re absolutely delighted that The Bradbury Foundation has been shortlisted for the Heart of the Community Award at the Great Big Small Awards!

To be selected as one of just three finalists, particularly following a record number of entries, is something we’re incredibly proud of.

A huge thank you to everyone who supports us and helps us make a difference to fantastic causes within our local communities.

Now we just need to keep everything crossed for awards night! 💛

We were delighted to support The Culture House’s Picnic in the Park yesterday and what a fantastic day it was!

Some of our team headed along to enjoy the event and had a brilliant time soaking up the atmosphere, listening to some incredibly talented singers and enjoying a fabulous performance from the choir.

Of course, we couldn’t attend without bringing along our humongous Bradbury Bear! 🐻 He proved very popular and thanks to everyone who entered our raffle, we raised a fantastic £291.61 for The Bradbury Foundation.

A huge congratulations to Diana Tasker, who was our lucky winner and got to take our rather large furry friend home with her! We hope he’s settled into his new surroundings nicely.

A big thank you to TheCultureHouse for putting on such a wonderful event for the local community and dedicating this particular event to The Bradbury Foundation . It was great to see so many families enjoying the entertainment and activities and we were very pleased to play a small part in such a brilliant day.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to say hello and supported our raffle!

Every child deserves the chance to be creative, explore their imagination and feel proud of what they can achieve.

We're delighted to support Our big picture's Young Artists Exhibition, helping to fund free summer workshops and provide materials so even more children and young people can take part.

We can't wait to see the creativity, talent and unique perspectives on display when the exhibition opens later this year.

There's nothing better than seeing first-hand the difference local charities make within our communities.

One of our Bradbury Foundation Ambassadors had the pleasure of attending Lincolnshire Cares' Afternoon Tea, where they met some of the wonderful volunteers and guests who benefit from the charity's incredible work.

We're delighted to be supporting Lincolnshire Cares through our latest round of funding, with a grant that will help provide a Christmas celebration for more than 100 older people. The event will offer companionship, entertainment and festive cheer to those who may otherwise spend the Christmas period alone.

A huge thank you to everyone at Lincolnshire Cares for the warm welcome and for the amazing work you do to support older people across our community.

Helping local organisations create memorable experiences is at the heart of what The Bradbury Foundation is all about.

Back in June, we were delighted to present a grant to Disability Social Network as part of our latest round of funding.

The grant will help fund a fully supported seaside trip, giving members living with a disability or long-term health condition the opportunity to enjoy a day out that many might otherwise be unable to access.

We're proud to support organisations that champion inclusion, improve wellbeing and make a real difference within their communities. We hope everyone has a wonderful day at the seaside!

Back in June, we had the pleasure of presenting a grant to Caistor Friendship Club as part of The Bradbury Foundation's latest round of funding.

The grant will help fund the club's annual Christmas lunch, bringing members together for a festive celebration that helps reduce loneliness and social isolation during the festive season.

Community groups like Caistor Friendship Club play such an important role in bringing people together, creating lasting friendships and supporting the wellbeing of local people. We're delighted to be able to support the fantastic work they do and look forward to seeing the difference this funding will make.

Last month, we were delighted to be one of the charities supported at the Forrester Boyd - Chartered Accountants vs Country Style Foods Charity Football Match.

It was a brilliant day, bringing together colleagues, friends and supporters for some friendly competition, all while raising money for two fantastic causes.

Together, an incredible £2,000+ was raised, which will be shared between The Bradbury Foundation and St Andrew's Hospice Grimsby

To top it all off, the Forrester Boyd team lifted the trophy after a fantastic performance on the pitch! 🏆⚽

A huge thank you to everyone who played, volunteered, donated and cheered from the sidelines. Your support will make a real difference to the local charities and community projects we are proud to support.

Two weeks ago, we had a fantastic couple of days at the Lincolnshire Show as part of the Rural Business Advisory Hub.

If you stopped by, you'll probably remember our giant Bradbury Bear! 🧸 Throughout the show we raffled him off in support of The Bradbury Foundation, raising a fantastic £274.50.

A huge thank you to everyone who bought a raffle ticket and helped support the work of the Foundation. We'd also like to give a special mention to Rhonda Thompson from the NFU, who kindly let us take Bradbury Bear on a lunchtime tour of the NFU stand. It's fair to say he attracted plenty of attention and certainly raised a few smiles along the way!

Thank you again to everyone who supported us. Every pound raised helps us continue supporting local charities and community projects across our region.
