Our charity has received donation surpassing £1,900 (including Gift Aid) thanks to staff at Eyeweb, a local web design and digital marketing agency, after successfully completing a 26.2-mile charity walk.
The charity marathon, titled Cards Against Eyeweb, took the group from Brough, through the centre of Hull, to Hornsea on 26 September 2025. During which, they completed increasingly ridiculous forfeits, like “Eat a dog biscuit”, “Wear face paint” and “Team chant with pom poms”.
The grand total was reached thanks to generous sponsorship from local businesses Dutch Imports & Daughters and Re-Dec Painting & Decorating Services, combined with donations from the public.
Paul Scott, managing director of Eyeweb, said: “The team is absolutely thrilled with the amount raised. It was a tough challenge, but the forfeits definitely kept us laughing. We’re so grateful to everyone who donated, cheered us on or sponsored the event.”
Anita Green, Charity Manager, said: “We are so grateful to everyone at Eyeweb for taking on this challenge and for choosing to support Health Stars. The money they have raised is already making a real difference to people in our communities, adding sparkle to the care that they receive from our fabulous teams.”
The funds will support our ongoing initiatives to enhance patient care, including recent purchases such as emergency clothing for patients in Humber Teaching NHS Foundation Trust's mental health crisis assessment ward.
