Barbie Day Charity Fundraiser A Huge Success At The Runwood Homes Care Group

Care homes across the Runwood Homes group celebrated in Barbie themed attire to collectively raise money for Asthma and Lung UK and Havens Hospices.

All care home teams across the group, as well as the central support team, dressed in their most colourful Barbie or Ken costumes to fundraise for the charities.

A £2 participant donation was required to take part in this year’s competition with the best dressed Barbie or Ken receiving a £50 Love2Shop voucher.

The group wide celebration of the new Barbie film was a huge success amongst the group, collectively raising £866 for the charities.

The team at Head Office, said: “We were absolutely over the moon to see all the homes participating in this year’s Barbie fundraising celebrations. To see all the residents, families and teams dress in their best barbie and ken costumes was wonderful experience for us all, and it was great to see everyone having so much fun. Collectively we raised an impressive amount for the charities. The plans are already in motion for the next themed fundraiser and can’t wait to unveil this to the Runwood Homes group.”
