Santa's Sack: ThruDark X Julia's House

A huge congratulations to Jamie Hicken and Julia’s House who have won our ThruDark Santa’s Sack Competition.

Jamie won himself a bundle of ThruDark kit and the £12,305 donation kindly raised by ThruDark customers went to Julia's House, a fantastic local charity that supports children with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions and their families.

Santa's Sack Raises £12305

For Julia's House

Julia’s House provides clinical, practical and emotional support for local families with frequent and regular respite care in their own homes, in the community or at its hospices. Julia's House is also supported by some notable figures such as Guy Ritchie, Harry Redknapp & Martin Clunes.

The support the Julia’s House nurses and carers provide is totally flexible and bespoke for families – it is also completely free and the kind donations of ThruDark customers will go towards funding this lifeline of care throughout Dorset & Wiltshire. Every family receives an allocation of care hours and they are free to use these hours to suit their needs – a few hours every week, regular days, or just now and again. By giving families this flexibility of choice, the service truly works to suit the ever changing needs of those in its care.

"We just want to say a huge thank you to Thru Dark and their customers. This is an amazing amount to raise and we so appreciate the support for local seriously ill children and their families. It will make a life-changing difference.”

Caroline Attreed, Corporate Fundraiser for Julia’s House.
