GM fundraising boosted by Mighton

The annual GM Fundraising Gala Dinner raised over £50,000 for Hope House, a charity providing palliative care and support to terminally ill children and their families.

The annual GM Fundraising Gala Dinner, held 17 June 2006, raised over £50,000 for Hope House, a charity providing palliative care and support to terminally ill children and their families.

Mike Derham, Managing Director of Mighton Products, the sash window hardware specialist, donated a luxury holiday on the Caribbean island of Tobago and is amazed with the generosity of the winning bid.

"When I made the offer I thought it would help raise a bit more, but the level of generosity surprised me, with the winning bid reaching £15,000".

"Because of this, I made a phone call and managed to extend the holiday from seven to 10 nights".

"More importantly, to raise a total of over £50,000 on the night is great and makes a big difference to those in need".

"The success of this year's dinner means that I'm definitely going to be involved in next year's event.".
