Sign of great things to come as Forget Me Not Children's Hospice welcome Leading Edge Signage and Graphics as a new Platinum Partner

After working together to create the signage for Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice’s new Hebden Bridge charity shop (opened by Happy Valley star Rhys Connah in March 2023), Liversedge based Leading Edge Signage and Graphics Limited decided to step up their support for the charity by becoming a Platinum Partner.

Matthew Evans, Managing Director at Leading Edge came to the hospice on Wednesday October 11th to receive a Platinum Partner plaque from Ken Davy, President of Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice Platinum Partners. Matthew said “Having worked with the charity for a number of years and been impressed with the amazing work they do, the opportunity to partner with Forget Me Not both to strengthen our links and also provide financial support to the team was something we are excited by. We are looking forward to being more active with the charity’s events and meeting new, like-minded people along the way”

Ken Davy, President of Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice Platinum Partners said,
“All of us at Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice would like to thank Leading Edge for joining us as Platinum Partners. We loved their work on the Hebden Bridge shop- they are now Forget Me Not’s preferred signage and graphics partner. We look forward to this joint partnership as they support the vital work we do at the hospice. Leading Edge have already joined us in some of our networking events and have linked up with some other like-minded businesses. Becoming a Platinum Partner enables networking relationships to develop and business opportunities to be explored, all while supporting our work helping children with life shortening conditions and their families.”

Forget Me Not’s Platinum Partners Consortium is a group of like-minded businesses who want to make a significant difference in helping Forget Me Not in their vital work in West Yorkshire. Platinum Partners make a commitment to supporting Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice for at least 12 months. A dedicated fundraiser works in partnership with them to support ESG or CSR policies ensuring the partnership produces the best results for both par-ties including tailored internal events, marketing and campaign support. Platinum Partners receive exclusive invitations to partners only events and are also invited to all networking opportunities. Corporate Volunteering days can be organised and a full tailored plan pulled together. For more details of how businesses can support Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice see the business section of their website.

Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice supports babies and children with life-shortening condi-tions and their families across West Yorkshire. Forget Me Not offers a wide range of services right from pregnancy, including superb nurs-ing care, hydrotherapy, creative therapy, days out, memory making, end of life care, be-reavement support and counselling, and much more, all available to the whole family.

With just a fraction of the funds it needs coming from the government, the charity must raise over £5.5m in charitable donations each year to ensure it is able to give the children and families the support they need.
