Thank you so much to the staff of Manchester Museum. They put together an amazing Night at the Museum … the first time they have done this type of event for families.
We went on a hunt for fossil evidence, we checked out how fast dinosaurs were running, we photographed magical, musical, and mysterious items on a treasure hunt
We designed our own T shirts and screen printed them
There was a midnight screening of “Night at the Museum 2” of course
And in the morning we met a Royal Python, a Madagascan Chameleon and two Costa Rican leaf frogs.

A big thank you to Helaina for raising £176 for CHA at our Ball of Hearts.
She has spent a year making bracelets to sell. They were beautifully colourful.

Charity fundraising has been in the news recently. We would like to reassure you that we have never sold your information to anyone. Our membership list is only used to send out information to you about our trips and events.
CHA are in the wonderful position that we don’t need to send letters asking for financial support. All our team are unpaid volunteers, and only rent a small storage unit to supply our occasional charity shop so our running expenses are low.
Let us share some news about our fabulous supporters who have raised money for CHA this summer. Liam ran Tough Mudder, Derek and Jodie both skydived for us, and others have had tea parties, been gardening for their neighbours, cycled Chester to Liverpool, run Manchester 10K and lots of other great fun things both big and small. We are very grateful to everyone who chooses to raise funds for us, and their friends and families for sponsoring them.

A huge thank you to everyone who worked together to help create our information day on Saturday 19th.
Thanks to our wonderful speakers, or those who led workshops; Dr Andreas Hoschtitzky, Claire Stableford, Dr Caroline Jones, Linda Griffiths, Clair Noctor, Kim Laurie, Hand on Heart, Parent Voices Count, and the rest of the cardiac teams who led our sessions for teenagers and the adults with CHD who attended. And not forgetting our CHA team who helped to pull off this organisational feat!
And thank you to those who attended, shared their experiences and helped to make the day a very friendly occasion.

Smart Storage have taken us on as their charity of the year and have already raised £380 for us with a sponsored Santa Dash.
We have a storage facility with the Bootle branch which is usually piled high with your donations ready for our next charity shop. Each time we run a week’s shop we can raise over £1000 so this storage facility is vital for our fundraising.
Thank you Smart Storage
