2024 Race Night Success!

Blues Foundation are extremely thankful to announce that £1,720 was raised at last week’s Charity Race Night at The Burrow at the Blues.

The first fundraising event of 2024, with many more to follow later in the year, more than 50 people packed out The Burrow for a high-octane evening featuring eight races and multiple entries into our specially designed ‘Winner’s Enclosure’ for the chance to win the Grand Prize on the night.

The total raised far exceeded our expectations and we would like to thank every single person who attended for giving so generously to our charity and allowing Blues Foundation the opportunity to continue our flagship activation well into the future with some exciting plans in the pipeline.

WHAT THE PROCEEDS WILL SUPPORT:

Blues Foundation are extremely proud of the work they have undertaken since launch in April 2020 with award winning flagship activation and projects with a huge societal impact across Bedfordshire.

And there is so much more resource Blues Foundation want to tap into and utilise – and the proceeds from the Race Night will help go towards this, alongside some other fundraising opportunities that are yet to be announced.

Blues Foundation would like to say a special mention to MurraYoung for sponsoring the event and in particular to Andy & Julie Smart for their support on the night to ensure a seamless race meet took place.

Further thanks go to those who donated prizes for the evening.

Blues Foundation Manager, Tom Harwood said: “Nights such as the Race Night are extremely pivotal to our charity, allowing us to raise vital funds to enable us to continue our service provision right the way across Bedfordshire.

“We are always extremely humbled by the amount of support shown to our charity and we cannot thank everyone enough for getting behind our latest fundraising initiative.

“Extremely excited to showcase our work via social media in the weeks to come to show everyone what their generous donations have gone towards for the benefit of those in our local community.”
