A BIG thank you to our supporters

August 2022 · 3 min read

Our first ever Making Space supporters event took place on Wednesday 3 August at the magnificent Knowsley Hall. The event was organised to thank individuals and businesses that have supported Making Space in recent years.

Around 40 guests joined us for a drinks reception on the terrace overlooking the beautiful gardens in the stunning sunshine that we were blessed with on the day. We then adjourned to the ballroom to enjoy speeches from our CEO, Rachel Peacock, Fundraising Manager, Bob Towers, a video showing wonderful feedback from the people we support and an excellent lunch time buffet.

Finally, we were treated to a talk from Stephen, the Knowsley Hall historian, who gave us an interesting insight in to the grand, spooky and sometimes even murderous history of the hall.

Fundraising Manager, Bob Towers was pleased to welcome our supporters to the event: “It was great to be able to bring so many people together and thank them for helping Making Space. We had a really enjoyable afternoon and we hope that everyone who joined us learnt more about Making Space and how they can help us achieve so much more.”
