A Big Thank You To Everyone
Haslers Foundation
On 20th March, The Dream Factory supported the Haslers Foundation Annual Quiz Night – held at the West Essex Golf Club. The event saw over 100 attendees, including representatives from local charities and businesses, coming together for a night of fun and fundraising.
Written by Haslers Chairman, Jon O’Shea, quiz questions covered everything from sports and music to cheese and UK service stations!
Together with those in attendance we helped to raise an impressive £7,500 for the Haslers Foundation, who in turn support various charitable causes across Essex, Herts and London. The Haslers Foundation have previously supported The Dream Factory with various donations to cover the costs of several dreams of those facing serious illness.
