This is the third year running that Rogers & Norton have taken children from Nelson's Journey to the Panto rather than sending out Christmas cards to everyone and we are delighted to report that the evening was a huge success with 30 children able to come along despite the fact that they are going through a very sad period in their young lives due to bereavement in some way.
We had a special tea party at the Theatre where the children were able to meet the Cast of the Show and it was wonderful that virtually every member of the cast gave up their time to entertain the children before the performance for which we are very grateful. Click here to see some pictures taken on the evening which give you a flavour of the event too.
The Theatre were excellent with their support and help on the evening as always and the Leeds Building Society donated goody bags for all the children to take home with them too. The Norfolk magazine photographer was there too along with the EDP reporter so hopefully the Charity will get some good media coverage to help their fundraising efforts.
We do arrange many varying promotional events throughout the year to try and put something back into the community and to help our chosen Charity, but this is by far the most rewarding evening of them all. To see the delight and joy in the childrens faces on the evening is a great reward for us all and we will continue to support the evening in future years.
Nelson's Journey do some wonderful work with children who have suffered with bereavement with some truly committed staff and volunteers and you can find more information about the Charity by visiting www.nelsonsjourney.org.uk.
