Putting on an Event for Cherry Lodge

If you would like to put on an event to raise money on our behalf, either as an individual or through your workplace or another organisation, we would be delighted to hear from you.

We believe that raising money for Cherry Lodge Cancer Care should be a joint venture and we will be happy to support you in any way we can. For example, our Fundraising team can give you advice, help you plan and perhaps run your event, help you with publicity, lend you promotional material, and, as appropriate, provide Cherry Lodge signs, T-shirts and certificates.

Whether your plans are big or small we really would love to hear from you. We can help you over the phone, in person at our Centre, or by coming to talk to your group. For more information please contact our Charity Administrator and Fundraising Events Coordinator, Tina Papasavva, on 020 8441 7000 or email tina@cherrylodgecancercare.org.uk.

Hadley Wood Golf Club

Cherry Lodge Cancer Care thanks Hadley Wood Golf Club for selecting us as their chosen charity. Supporters of Cherry Lodge are invited to attend the Hadley Wood Christmas Market on Thursday 21st November 2024, from 11am to 4pm. This event is a great opportunity to get ahead with your Christmas shopping, enjoy luxurious surroundings, choose from a tempting range of refreshments, meet friends and help the golf club raise funds to keep Cherry Lodge’s many services completely free of charge.

Cha Nights at the Arkley Club

Thank you very much indeed to the organisers of the Arkley Club Cha Nights, which they put on very successfully every few months. All proceeds from these events are donated to Cherry Lodge Cancer Care. There have been three Arkley Club Cha Nights so far in 2024: on 23rd February, 17th May, and 30th August. The next one is on Friday 29th November 2024. Attendees enjoy great music from the 1960s and ’70s and make the most of the opportunity to dance the evening away for a very affordable £5 entry fee.

New Ground OWCH

OWCH (Older Women’s Co-housing Community) moved into ‘New Ground’, Union Street, Barnet in November 2016 and have been supporters of Cherry Lodge from the beginning. We thank them for their ongoing support. Fundraising events held in aid of Cherry Lodge have included very successful Preloved Clothes and Accessories Sales. In November 2023, New Ground resident and Cherry Lodge volunteer Charlotte, was interviewed on BBC Radio London and took the opportunity to tell people about CL’s very special place in the community. On 14th December 2024, Charlotte is putting on an inhouse Festive Quiz, with mulled wine and raffle, to raise money for Cherry Lodge.

Summer Soulstice and Big Payback 2024

Summer Soulstice 2024, held on Saturday 15th June 2024 at Old Elizabethans’ Memorial Playing Fields, was very much enjoyed despite the challenging weather. Top class live soul acts and music from 30 of the UK’s favourite DJ’s filled the three music arenas. Lots of entertainment for children, interesting stalls, and a wide range of delicious food and drinks helped make this a great day out. A fantastic £20,000 raised by the festival was ceremonially handed over to representatives of Cherry Lodge at the Summer Soulstice Big Payback event at Barnet’s Black Horse pub on August Bank Holiday Sunday.

Summer Soulstice/Cherry Lodge Heart and Soul Ball

The Summer Soulstice/Cherry Lodge Cancer Care Heart and Soul Ball took place at the Double Tree by Hilton Hotel, Borehamwood on Saturday 17th February 2024. The event sold out well in advance and was a huge success on all counts. Two hundred friends of Summer Soulstice and Cherry Lodge enjoyed a brilliant evening, with top quality tombola prizes, delicious food, auction run by talented MC Sion James, a fabulous live act from Tisha Monique and great dance music until 1pm Soulstice from DJs Jamie and Jester Groove. Around £9,500 was raised for Cherry Lodge funds.
