The Hays Travel Foundation has donated £4505.46 to Chestnut Tree House Hospice.

This children's charity provides hospice care services and community support for children and young people with progressive life-shortening conditions throughout East and West Sussex, Brighton and Hove, and South East Hampshire.

Our donation will help to fund the outward bound days they run for children over the age of 12 who visit the hospice. The charity is looking to hold two of these events with our donation; each will have activities on offer for the children to enjoy including zip wires, accessible archery and abseiling. The days will be fully accessible and attentive experienced staff will be on hand to help with adapting activities for young people with complex needs.

These types of challenge days out are extremely popular - feedback from a previous trip to Hindleap Warren in 2015 was very positive, with the young people really enjoying time with their peers.
