Jack's splashing out again for the kids

By Nub News Reporter 2nd Aug 2023

A THURROCK children's campaigner will once more be aiming to make a splash to support Little Haven's Children's Hospice.

For the past three years Jack Barnes has undertaken a sponsored paddle from his native Liverpool to London - and he will shortly be setting out on his fourth trip - aiming to raise £7,000 to buy two new beds for the hospice.

He has already been supported by several Thurrock residents and groups, including children at the Harris Primary Mayflower Academy who raised £130 hosting a non uniform day.

Jack said: "I fundraise to help to give these children the very best care and priceless memories possible. Please give whatever you can to get these beds for the children."

His fundraising page can be found via this link.
