We are once again collecting Easter Eggs here at de Stafford School in Caterham for the Royal Marsden Oak Centre for Children and Young People. 🐣 Last year, thanks to your generosity, we collected an incredible 387 Easter Eggs! These brought so many smiles to the children on the wards and those receiving treatment at the hospital. Let’s see if we can collect even more this year! If you would like to donate an Easter Egg, please drop it off at the school between 8am and 3pm, from now until Wednesday, 2nd April. This will ensure we can deliver them in time for Easter! 🐰 Thank you all in advance for your kindness and support - it truly makes a difference. 💛 #caterhamcommunity #EasterEggAppeal #royalmarsdenoakcentre
