On Sunday 29th January, Spectrum’s volunteers, participants and friends came together to celebrate Spectrum’s 6th anniversary. The Spectrum team were busy as bees planning the event, contacting local community champions for donations and arranging the bouncy castle and the DJ.
It was a great afternoon, everyone had fun dancing and singing to karaoke at the disco, organised by Ben Yates from Your Little Gig. Ben also provided games such as a limbo set, connect four and skittles, which the children enjoyed immensely and were popular go-to places during the party, as well as the huge bouncy castle.
When people wanted a cool-down in the quiet zone, they were treated to tombola prizes ranging from toys, games and home gadgets to smellies, sweets and chocolates. Children showed off their artistic skills at the crafts table - one participant did an amazing drawing of Transformers characters! Guests also treated themselves to our homemade cakes and drinks made by the volunteers and staff at Spectrum and visited the Sports Therapy Room’s stall for massages. Athena - one of our volunteers - even sold her beautiful homemade jewellery!
The day went by so quickly - and in that short period of time, we raised over £510, thanks to your support! We’re already excited about planning Spectrum’s 7th birthday party. We look forward to seeing you all again next year!
