Eden Shopping Centre continues supporting Heart of Bucks into 2025, aiding Buckinghamshire charities with fundraising events.
The centre wants to support even more local charities. Big and small groups will get help in the county. In 2024, Eden had various fundraising events.
One event, the Eco Elves Teddy Trade, raised over £6,000. This happened during the Christmas period. Tickets cost £3.50, and all sales went to Heart of Bucks.
For each ticket, Heart of Bucks added another £1.50. This collaboration raised awareness and funds, and the money helps local causes that are important. Eden wants groups to contact Heart of Bucks in 2025 so charities can learn how to work with Eden together.
This helps increase awareness for the charities. Eden’s involvement helps Heart of Bucks reach more people. It is a top shopping spot for the community, and this offers better support to local charities.
Eden’s marketing manager spoke about the partnership. She said it helps the centre play a key role. They want to support local charities at a basic level.
She also mentioned there are many ways to fundraise at Eden. Heart of Bucks helps make fundraising effective. They connect with the community for support, and the centre looks forward to the 2025 partnership. Visitors will help support Buckinghamshire charities.
Heart of Bucks’ CEO is excited about working with Eden. They will expand support for local charities in 2025. The funds from Eden’s events help these groups directly, and it creates a good effect in the community.
Heart of Bucks began in 2000 and gave out over £17.5 million. This money went to causes that help those in need. It provides support throughout Buckinghamshire.
