Sponsors

Every pair of Supershoes is funded by donations from kind sponsors, who come in all shapes and sizes…..

From parents of previous recipients who want to ‘pay forward’ the gift of Supershoes, to fundarisers who have organised an event of some description in order to make a donation. We receive one-off payments from some and regular sponsorship from others. Some want to remain anonymous, whilst others are happy to share their donation and/or story.

Here are some of those we are able to share with you.

Sponsor - Danielle Stonehouse

Danielle Stonehouse

Danielle was inspired to raise money for our charity by her sister, Laura Sumpter, who is one of our Super Artists. Danielle cut off 18 inches of her hair which she donated to Little Princess Trust, arranged a donations box at her work, organised a raffle & BBQ for the ‘big hair chop’ & raised an incredible amount of money in support of this via a Facebook fundraiser … an awesome effort by an awesome sponsor!

Dawn’s daughter, Super Rebekah received Supershoes herself and absolutely loved them. Dawn said they wanted to make other children smile and remind them that they are so much more than their illness. Thank you so much to the McLachlan family for paying it forward! You certainly have created some more smiles with your generosity!

Sponsor - De-Novo

De-Novo

Supporting charities has always been part of Lesley Jones’ business ethos, so when she decided to set up an online networking group to complement her business, De-Novo Consultants, she wanted it to be a little different. Lesley decided that her networking events would feature a charity and that payment for the event would support that charity. At Supershoes, we were delighted to present at the inaugural event! Many thanks to Lesley for choosing us and to everyone who came and donated so generously. It was lovely meeting you all. We enjoyed our discussions in the breakout rooms and finding out more about everyone too.
