Story

Sidley is the mascot for Once Upon a Smile and he gets up to all sorts to help us fundraise for bereaved families.

Last year Sidley had a target of £5,000 which he managed to smash and actually raised over £7,000!

Because of last years success we doubled his target to £7,000 which has already been reached, therefore his target is now £20,000!!

Your fundraiser can be as big or as small as you like, and all the money raised will go towards the 'Sidley Challenge' target.

All you need to do is set yourself your own challenge, this could be taking part in Tough Mudder, a fun run with friends, a car boot sale, a cake bake or taking part in a big event like the Great North swim.

Simply set up a fundraising page associated with this campaign and set your own target.
