The Mad Hatters Parties are events organised to lift the spirits of children with cancer or serious illnesses and disabilities. We have been running the parties for 10 years and they are held at the Portsmouth Marriott Hotel. All of the funding for this is raised from donations, and any funds remaining are used to provide equipment for the children's wards and to give gifts and special trips for children who are very seriously ill. The next event is in February, admission is by invitation only as numbers are limited. We are still looking for a sponsor for this year's party.
The parties seem to get bigger and better each year and the photos from the last few parties are now in the gallery, to check them out you will need to register if you haven't already done so, if you have then sign in. You'll then see a button labelled "Hatters Gallery" in the left-hand column. There is also lots about the parties on the Portsmouth News website.

We're delighted to have received some outstanding support from Doris Alexander & Joan Penlington (pictured) who did a sponsored walk to the Spinnaker Tower in Southsea. Click the image for a larger version of this Evening News article. Thank you both so much for your efforts & contribution - our very own Page 3 girls!!
We work hard to ensure that the funds we raise are used to the benefit of those children the party was always meant to help... and we were able to cover the cost of a trip to Disneyworld Florida on Dreamflight for Curtis.
