Local NHS charity launches new Easter fundraising event

ECHO, the charity of East Cheshire NHS Trust, has announced their new event for Easter 2023, the Bunny Hop.

Local schools, nurseries, childminders, playgroups, clubs, families, and friends are being encouraged to take part in the sponsored Bunny Hop event. Hop the distance of your choice or complete a set number of hops over a certain amount of time.

The event is suitable for all ages and abilities. Children can toddle, walk, run, skip, hop, roll or jump into this fundraising event. Schools and groups can include the Bunny Hop as part of their art and PE lesson, outdoor time or as part of their daily exercise routine.

Taking part in the Bunny Hop event is easy. You can hop into action any time throughout April, just choose your time, date and sponsored walk route or venue and you're ready to go!

The Bunny Hop is a great way for children to get outside, get active and help to raise money for their local NHS charity.

Once you’ve signed up for the event, you’ll receive: a bunny ear template to cut out and decorate, a fundraising pack to help you reach your target, sponsorship form, certificate and a letter to send home to parents about the event.
