A school in Weston Green is seeking help from businesses in the area interested in supporting two charities of importance to them.

Weston Green School will be holding a May summer party to raise funds for Mind and Winton’s Wish.

The school, on Weston Green Road, want businesses to provide auction and raffle prizes and sponsorship for the event on May 11.

The school has previously raised £3,000 for Shooting Star Chase and this time is hoping to raise even more.

Lucia Harvey, headteacher, said: “Our aim is to raise awareness and funds for these worthy charities to enable them to continue to help and support families at times of great loss and need.

“Mind and Winston’s Wish are particularly close to the hearts of all at Weston Green School following the recent tragic loss of one of our parents.

“We sincerely hope that with our local businesses we can achieve our goal.”

Maria Healy from Mind said: “We want to urge Thames Ditton community members to support Weston Green School, and also say a huge thank you to the school for holding this fantastic fundraiser and going the extra mile for Mind.”

The Hollywood themed event will take place at Hampton Court Golf Club on May 11 from 7.30pm to midnight.
