Holgates Holiday Parks, a family-owned business operating 10 holiday parks in Morecambe Bay, South Cumbria, and the Ribble Valley, is thrilled to announce a record-breaking donation of £10,000. This substantial amount will be evenly split between Pancreatic Cancer UK and St John’s Hospice, two deserving charitable organisations. The donation was made possible by the success of the Charity Ceilidh Weekend, which took place from 23rd to 25th June, marking its return after a 4-year hiatus.
Over the course of the weekend’s events, Holgates Holiday Parks managed to raise an impressive total of £7,632.34. This outstanding achievement was made possible by the unwavering support of the company’s loyal customers, dedicated holiday home owners, and generous suppliers. Their enthusiasm and willingness to contribute to these worthy causes are truly commendable.
In addition to the funds raised by the supportive community, Michael Holgate, the Managing Director of Holgates Holiday Parks, personally donated £2,367.66. Pancreatic Cancer UK has been a cause very close to the Holgate family since 2015, making it the principal charity they support. St John’s Hospice was also chosen as a recipient due to the exceptional work they do in providing palliative care and ongoing support to families within the local community.
This year’s successful event raises the overall fundraising totals for Pancreatic Cancer UK to an impressive £21,332 and for St John’s Hospice to £7,300, reinforcing Holgates Holiday Parks’ commitment to these causes.
Holgates Holiday Parks extends their deepest gratitude to everyone who played a part in making the Charity Ceilidh Weekend a resounding success. The company’s dedication to giving back to the community and supporting these important organisations is truly commendable.
