We are thrilled to announce that KIMS Hospital and Sevenoaks Medical Centre have raised an incredible £15,833 for our Charity of the Year, Holding On Letting Go.

The charity was chosen by employees at KIMS Hospital and Sevenoaks Medical Centre, and throughout the year, our Social Committee has organised a variety of exciting events to help raise funds for this meaningful cause and bring joy across the hospital.

 

These events included The Mount Snowdon Challenge, mouth-watering cake sales where our talented bakers showcased their skills, fun-filled Bingo Evenings, our much-loved annual KIMS Walk through the stunning Kent countryside, and the festive highlight of the year…our Christmas Party and raffle!

All the funds raised for Holding On Letting Go will go towards providing vital support for bereaved children, young people, and their families in our local community. We are incredibly proud to support this charity and are excited to continue raising money for them in the new year.

“None of this would have been possible without your incredible support, so a huge thank you to everyone who contributed. We’re looking forward to organising new and exciting events next year. Wishing you all a Merry Christmas!” Keli Tomlin, Clinical Nurse Manager and Social Committee Chair

“Thank you so much to KIMS Hospital for not only choosing HOLG to be their charity of the year, but for spending so much time and effort on their fundraising for us. Their donation ensures we can offer free support for bereaved children and their families when they need us. Corporate sponsorship is not just a donation – it also raises our profile to staff, clients, customers or patients, who might need us themselves or can tell someone else about us. KIMS have sent our name far and wide on social media, which really helps us. Child bereavement services are few and far between, so making sure people who need us, know who we are, where we are and that our services are free to them and easy to ask for, is important. KIMS have done a fantastic job both with fundraising and getting our name out there!” Jules Tobin, Holding On Letting Go CEO
