On Wednesday 11th of December 2024, Old Park Meadow hosted their annual Name a Star memorial event where families and friends came together to remember their loved ones. The event was well attended, and there was a lovely atmosphere as everyone decorated their stars and took time to stop and reflect. Through money raised from the sale of refreshments, and a raffle, Old Park Meadow’s Name a Star event raised £648.80 for Farleigh Hospice and St Clare Hospice. 

Delyse Jackaman, manager of Old Park Meadow had this to say about the event. “We were delighted to see so many families, not only because it helped raise £648.80 for Farleigh Hospice and St Clare Hospice but also because they were able to talk with one another and share memories of their loved ones”.

Old Park Meadow’s charitable efforts do not stop there as they regularly raise money for several of their chosen charities: The Essex Wildlife Trust, Essex & Herts Air Ambulance and of course Farleigh Hospice and St Clare Hospice through donations raised from their Coffee morning’s every Wednesday between 10am-12pm. Everyone is welcome to come along for a cuppa, a coffee or a bit of cake and a wander around the grounds.
