Charity of the Year

and the winner is...

TEAM DANIEL!!!

TeamDaniel was set up in 2017, after our beloved 15-year-old son, brother, grandson, nephew and dear friend was taken from us unexpectedly in February 2017. Daniel took his own life as he couldn’t see a way out of the stress he was under brought on by his GCSE exams.

Throughout this awful time, Daniel’s family were supported by two organisations, Leeds General Infirmary and Martin House Children’s Hospice.

In 2017, we started TeamDaniel, consisting of family members and friends from Leeds and London, who came together to raise funds for Martin House Children’s Hospice who looked after Daniel for 4 weeks before his funeral. As a small token of our appreciation, we raised just under £20,000 by taking on a number of fundraising events, including the 45km Skipton Canal Challenge, the Olympic Park 10km, Fun Days, Tombola’s, Scarecrow Festivals, quiz nights and race nights. Martin House Children’s Hospice still support Daniel’s family to this day!
