Welcome to the campaign fundraising page of the Veronica Claxton Memorial fund.

The VCMF is a fund I set up in memory of my dear mum who left a huge hole in all our lives on December 8th 2008 when she lost her short battle with cancer aged just 50.

Keeping her name alive and helping to support others was a real inspiration for me and the fundraising soon began in mid 2009. To date as of September 2023 we have managed to raise over £350,000 and £450,000 for all charities.

Our work has seen us recognised with various awards both locally and nationally with a trip to 10 Downing St after being named a 'point of light' by former prime minister David Cameron and a regional fundraiser of the year award courtesy of the Pride of Britain awards where we competed with 16 others for the national fundraiser of the year. We were then delighted to receive an invite to Buckingham Palace as part of the Kings coronation celebration in May 2023.

Anybody is welcome to get involved and get their own thing going on and help support our ongoing mission. As you can see below we have lots of pages and events going on and would love to have you on board too helping us along.
