The PPBF manages and maintains compassionate housing right next to Southampton Hospital called Aggie’s Burrow and Isaac’s Pad. These cosy, private and well-equipped flats are a lifeline for local families if a premature baby or critically ill child requires off-island treatment.
Our Buy-A-Night campaign, invites the community to safeguard the future of these vital flats, by purchasing and personalising a night of their choice. But, this isn’t the only way to help us maintain each ‘home from home’ and keep families together.
You can also Host a Night to secure many more nights, for families going through difficult and uncertain times.
Whether you’re planning an event especially for the PPBF, or you’ll be fundraising during an event that has already been organised, every night counts.
Below are just a few ideas to help with fundraising:
Our friends at the Thomas de la Rue in St Peter Port are willing to offer their venue space free of charge (if your preferred date is available) for those hosting a night for the PPBF. You can get in touch with the team by emailing: delarue@liberationpubco.com
Thank you to the below individuals, groups and businesses for incorporating the PPBF into their event by fundraising on the night.
Get in touch if you would like to Host a Night and appear on our special wall.
