The Prince's Trust Team programme in Mansfield has been hard at work raising funds to support their upcoming community project at Mansfield Woodhouse Methodist Church, gathering an impressive £308 through a series of creative events. With a mission to transform their overgrown garden for the local community, the team organised a range of activities which brought people together and showcased the generous spirit of the town. Here’s a closer look at their fundraising journey:
Bake Sale Brings Sweet Success
No fundraiser is complete without a bake sale, and the Prince's Trust Team programme did not disappoint. Selling a delicious selection of cakes and cookies, the bake sale attracted sweet-toothed locals who were more than happy to support the cause. Every bite counted, with the bake sale contributing significantly to the final total!
Tombola at Mansfield Market
A tombola held at Mansfield Market brought excitement and the chance to win fantastic prizes generously donated by a range of local businesses. From board games and toys to gift vouchers and tasty treats, local businesses once again rallied behind the Team programme, to make the tombola a success whilst also helping young people build their confidence within the community.
Step-by-Step Through Kings Mill Reservoir
To round off their efforts, the team embarked on a sponsored walk through the scenic trails of Kings Mill Reservoir. Friends, family, and local supporters sponsored the participants, with each mile bringing them closer to their goal. The walk not only raised vital funds for equipment and tools needed to complete the planned project but also built team spirit, as everyone banded together for a great cause.
Support Through JustGiving
The team have also launched a JustGiving page to widen their reach and allow those who couldn’t attend events in person to show their support and contribute directly to the cause. This digital effort brought in donations that helped push the fundraising total closer to their goal.
All funds raised by Mansfield 7 will go directly into the renovation project designed to benefit and uplift the local area. IAF extends our thanks to every person who has joined us in supporting Team programme participants through this stage of the course.
