Our charity fundraising
We were delighted to be able to support local good causes through our annual dance displays and thank you very much for your generosity.
Breast Cancer Care
Elaine Baldwin is one of our superstar mums. She is fundraising for the charity 'Breast Cancer Care' following her own battle with cancer.Over our 2 Sunday shows, she ran a prize raffle and we also had a collection after each performance. The raffle had some wonderful prizes donated by local businesses and we are delighted that Elaine raised £227. The top prize of "Rock the Stadium" tickets was won by Margaret Mitchell. You can view a full list of prize winners here.
The audience were also very generous and we raised an additional £254.80 through our collection. You can still make a donation by visiting Elaine's Just Giving page.
Scottish Cot Death Trust
We were deeply saddened by the heartbreaking news from one of our former students that her 4 month old son Cameron had passed away in his sleep. The family are supporting the Scottish Cot Death Trust in memory of little Cameron and we made this our chosen charity for the Braes branch displays. Our audience raised £450 through the raffle and donations. You can still make a donation by visiting their Just Giving page.
Further donations
Our South Queensferry branch raised a total of £450 through the raffle and collections. This money is being split between smaller local good causes and children's charities and we will keep you up to date with how the money is being shared.
During the past year, we have also raised £1236 for the STV Appeal, £80 for 'Jeans for Genes' as well as ongoing fundraising for Challengenée. Students have also taken part in local community fundraising events across Scotland.
Thank you all for your generosity and kindness.
