Acorns Helmdon Pre School

Playground Markings Direct are pleased to help Acorns Helmdon Pre School in their fund raising for playground equipment. Acorns is a registered charity managed by a group of dedicated trustees. With continued fund raising throughout the year they have been able to provide toys and play equipment for the village children and children that come from the surrounding area.

This year they have decided to increase their efforts even further by taking on Mount Snowdon in Wales. Six brave team members comprised of three staff members and three committee members will strive to climb the summit of 3560 ft. on June 6th 2013 and raise £1500 for new equipment.

Along with providing new equipment for the children some of the money raised will go towards a memorial bench and placed in their conservation area in the name of Judy Butler. Acorns sadly lost Judy after a brave battle with cancer last year. The children will enjoy summer days around the bench listening to stories while experiencing nature.

We gladly donate to their cause and wish them every success with their Snowdon challenge. For further information on their school go to http://www.helmdonacorns.org.uk/
