A successful Business Breakfast

October 21, 2024

Shooting Star House opened its doors this October for another engaging Business Breakfast, welcoming a variety of corporate supporters and partners dedicated to fundraising for the charity. These events serve as a valuable platform for networking and collaboration, allowing local businesses to share innovative fundraising ideas while learning more about the impact of their contributions to Shooting Star Children’s Hospices.

The morning began with an introduction from our Chief Executive, Paul Farthing, and the followed by the chance to meet and discuss ideas.

The bi-annual breakfast featured an emotional highlight – a heartfelt talk from a bereaved parent, which underscored the importance of our charity’s support in times of grief. Guests expressed their appreciation for the moving presentation, with one guest stating, “Today was extremely moving and insightful, so thank you for having us.”

The Community team played a vital role by ensuring to include local businesses who could benefit from our Business Breakfast’s content. Feedback from the guests was overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing eagerness for the next gathering, which is scheduled for April next year!

The Corporate team at Shooting Star Children’s Hospices commented: “It was brilliant to bring so many corporate supporters together for our bi-annual Business Breakfast, it is so important to show them what their support is doing, and the talk from a bereaved parent really put it into perspective. We would like to thank everyone for making the trip to Shooting Star House!”
