The incredible charity Box4Kids ran by the Barrie Wells Trust invited seriously ill children to enjoy the games last week from the comfort of executive boxes at Wembley Stadium. The donated box was filled with little Leopard fans who thoroughly enjoyed their VIP day at Wembley.
Our Managing Director and the Owner of the Leigh Leopards, Derek Beaumont, shared with us some wonderful feedback that Box4Kids received from their guests:
“When we called Alexander’s dad, the whole family were at the stadium cheering the team onto the bus ahead of their journey down to Wembley, Alexander’s dad couldn’t believe we were calling to offer them VIP tickets to watch the game! Alexander’s mum said “having the box and facilities and importantly the view made Alex’s day, he got to see his team winning the Challenge Cup and felt like a VIP. To have this opportunity at Wembley on such a big occasion was like a dream. We want to thank everyone involved.”
“Luke, one of our young guests, was proudly showing off a photo of his Grandad holding the trophy from 1971! Mum said that it was such a lovely moment to watch Luke witness the win, like his Grandad did all those years ago! Such a special family memory that they can always treasure.”
Box4Kids is a wonderful charity, giving seriously ill children the chance to enjoy events from executive boxes. The boxes provide a safe and relaxing environment for children and gives them the opportunity to be treated like a VIP for the day, providing them with quality time with their guest, away from the day-to-day challenges they face with their illnesses. Box4Kids includes a fantastic atmosphere, goody bags, delicious food, incredible hospitality, meeting mascots and more.
Often, boxes are left empty at sporting and entertainment events which gives Barrie the opportunity to fill them with deserving children. Organisations are able to simply donate their boxes to the Barrie Wells Trust for individual events and the team will handle the logistics.
