Sunday 26th November saw the much-awaited Clubbercise Clubbathon, and what a party it was!!
 
By 3.45pm our eager Clubbercisers were gathered, full of energy, at Wykeham Hall in anticipation of the big event. As Carly and Michelle, the official Clubbercise instructors, put the finishing touches to the sound and disco lighting, the participants made the last few additions to their brightly coloured outfits – fluorescent tutus, glittery face paint and flashing glow sticks galore! Everyone looked fantastic!!
 
The Lennox team busily sold refreshments, raffle tickets and glow sticks, but as the sun went down outside the party really started. The main lights went out and instructor Carly took charge for the first hour as the music pumped and the disco lights dazzled. After the first few tentative steps, everyone joined the routines with real gusto. Arms waved, feet pounded and sounds of the 90s filled the air.
 
As the temperature in the hall rose and windows were opened wide, the second hour’s instructor’s honours went to Michelle. Despite a few, very welcome, water breaks, the energy in the room never wavered from beginning to end - everyone gave 110 percent.
 
Our biggest thanks go to local Clubbercise instructors Carly Faiers and Michelle Duckett who gave us their time and energy completely free of charge, and to everyone who came along, joined in and helped us to raise over £1,000 to support children with cancer this Christmas.

The students very talented students of St Mary's Hare Park School in Gidea Park put on a spectacular production of the Gilbert and Sullivan comic opera, The Mikado.

After the show the audience, which was made up of very proud family and friends, donated into collection buckets and the funds raised were divided between us and one other charity. Vincent Fitzmaurice, the charity CEO, and his wife, Gemma Fitzmaurice visited the school (pictured) to collect the cheque for £350 during an assembly.

Thank you to the teachers, students and community of the school for all their hard work to raise these funds.

The manager and staff of Mawney Arms Pub in Romford organised a lively bank holiday weekend fun day which raised over £800!

Last year, Jackie Moledina braved a tandem skydive to raise £730 for 18 year old Joe. Joe had a rare bowel cancer and we supported him and his family during his treatment.

This year, Danny (left) and Paul (right) took on the Liverpool Rock 'n' Roll Half Marathon and Joe requested that the money they raise is donated to Lennox. With the help of friends, family, neighbours and work colleagues at the distribution warehouse for B&M, the pair raised a grand total of £1,320!

Joe's mum, Angela, said "Joe wasn't able to do the run himself but he wanted to do something to help others who are going through treatment.

Thank you to Danny, Paul, Joe, Angela, Jackie and everyone who helped to support them.
