Alan Norman, David Snartt and Caroline Joyce beside the winning tree created by Warren Hills Primary School

The Shuttlewood Clarke Foundation, Leicestershire’s unique registered charity which offers support, care and friendship to the elderly, adults of all ages with disabilities and young people, recently held its Great Christmas Tree Competition.

Three schools took part – Glen Hills Primary School in Glen Parva, Lady Jane Grey Primary School in Groby and Warren Hills Primary School in Coalville.

The wonderful trees that each class created were displayed in one of the Foundation’s country houses, Ulverscroft Manor, where over 300 housebound and socially isolated people had the opportunity to view them during the Christmas period.

Alan Norman, Chief Executive for the Shuttlewood Clarke Foundation said “We are delighted with the fantastic, creative trees the school children have made. They make a magnificent festive display which really enhances our Christmas decorations.”

The competition was judged by County Councillor David Snartt and Caroline Joyce, Operation’s Director for the Loughborough Building Society at the Foundation’s Christmas Fair on Monday 21st December 2009. The winning tree was created by pupils at Warren Hills Primary School and the children from the successful class won a day out at the Foundation’s Yew Trail Outdoor Classroom and Creative Space.
As a thankyou to all of the schools who took part; each class that entered received a voucher entitling them to discount off their next visit to the Yew Trail.

Thankyou for your support.

The Yew Trail is a secluded, safe area of private woodland that provides an inspirational, magical environment for children of all ages, abilities and diverse ethnic and social backgrounds.

Santa visited Markfield to raise funds for unique Leicestershire charity the Shuttlewood Clarke Foundation.

Santa Claus came to town with 2 special trips to Markfield on Monday 7th & Wednesday 9th December 2009 raising over £200 towards the wonderful work of the Shuttlewood Clarke Foundation; a registered charity that provides support, care and friendship to the elderly, adults of all ages with disabilities and young people.
Many thanks to the people of Markfield for their generous support and Santa looks forward to seeing everyone again at Ulverscroft Manor, Priory Lane, Ulverscroft on Monday 21st December when he will be making another special appearance at 2.00pm at the Foundation’s Christmas Fair which runs from 10am -3pm.

To celebrate 20 years of support, care and friendship, to look forward to another 20 years of support for the people of Leicestershire and to raise in excess of £20,000 the Shuttlewood Clarke Foundation has launched its ‘20 Plus Appeal’

 From its humble beginnings in 1989 as the dream of one man, the late  David Clarke, to 2009 when we welcomed our 100,000 visitor and launched the Yew Trail outdoor classroom the Foundation has gone from strength to strength. Working with our dedicated team of 18 staff and over 120 wonderful, loyal volunteers this unique Leicestershire Charity is looking forward to the next 20 years.

If you would like to support the ‘20 Plus Appeal’ please make an online donation via the home page on www.shuttlewood-clarke.org or contact the Foundation on 01530 244914.
