Red noses at the ready – Rivendell View care home residents team up with local school children to raise cash for Comic Relief

Staff and residents at Rivendell View Care Home in Stoke Bardolph teamed up with pupils at a nearby school to hold a bake sale to raise money for Comic Relief’s 40th Red Nose Day on March 21.

The residents were joined by pupils from Rivendell Flying High Academy for the sale that raised almost £200 for the BBC charity.

The care home’s talented chefs whipped up an irresistible array of homemade cakes, which were sold after school at Rivendell Flying High Academy by pupils and care home residents.

Leading the charge were head boy Alix and head girl Alice, who teamed up with Brian, Janet, and Rita from the care home to charm the crowds and sell out the treats.

Every penny raised went straight to Comic Relief and the donations make it possible to help fill the shelves of baby banks, community food centres and fund vital community-led services.

Cara Stockill, HC-One’s Rivendell View Care Home Manager, stated: “I am so proud of everyone involved to collaborate with the school and students to raise an amazing amount of money for such a worthy cause.”
