HOUSEBUILDER Redrow Eastern has donated more than £32,000 to its charity of the year, Lennox Children's Cancer Fund, reinforcing its commitment to empowering local communities.
The funds were raised during a vibrant charity gala evening attended by subcontractors, partner agencies, and Redrow colleagues, all coming together to strengthen a cause that touches the lives of many.
To raise money, the event featured a raffle, silent auctions, heads & tails auction game helping to raise both vital funds and awareness. This entertainment included a three-course meal paired with a live band and caricaturist.
The donation will help Lennox Children's Cancer Fund to continue its essential work providing financial, emotional, and practical support to families navigating the challenges of childhood cancer. From covering travel costs and hospital appointments, to providing emotional counselling and emergency grants, the charity has played a crucial role in helping families for over 30 years.
Jackie Coulthard, Managing Director at Redrow Eastern, comments: "Lennox Children's Cancer Fund provides a lifeline to families during some of the most challenging moments of their lives. We're grateful to be able to contribute to their efforts to aid those affected in our community who are facing a cancer diagnosis. This donation reflects our deep commitment to the communities we build in - not just through homes, but through meaningful partnerships that create a lasting difference."
Lindsey Bidwell, Relations & Partnerships Manager at Lennox Children's Cancer Fund, said: "As a local charity just around the corner from Redrow, we're hugely grateful to Samantha Gladstone, the Redrow team, their supply chain partners and every guest who supported the gala. When a child is diagnosed with cancer, a whole family's world implodes.
"At Lennox Children's Cancer Fund, we provide a lifeline of emotional, financial, educational, and respite support, but we can only do this because of businesses like Redrow and their suppliers. Thank you for believing in our work and helping us make a real different to families facing their darkest days."
In addition to its support for Lennox Children's Cancer Fund, Redrow Eastern continues to champion a wide range of local causes.
Recent donations of £1,500 each have been made to St Luke's Hospice, Essex & Herts Air Ambulance, and Havens Hospice. The housebuilder has also announced the winners of its 2025 Community Fund, which awards grants a share of £12,000 to the grassroots groups driving a difference in their neighbourhoods. All part of Redrow's broader mission to uplift organisations that make a meaningful impact in their communities.
Redrow Eastern currently has a range of energy efficient homes available across its developments in Essex, Hertfordshire and Suffolk. For more information, visit the Redrow Eastern website here https://www.redrow.co.uk/locations/east-england.
