Autumn Trivia Triumph
On Friday, 4th October, we hosted our second quiz night of the year at the Atherton Suite, Nantwich Football Club. The evening was filled with fun, laughter, and great company. A special thank you to Gary Johnson, our fantastic quizmaster, for creating an engaging mix of questions, including a music and picture round that kept everyone on their toes.

We are thrilled to share that the evening raised nearly £1,100 through ticket and raffle sales! We sincerely appreciate everyone who joined us and contributed to the success of the night. We can't wait to see you at our next quiz night!
We want to extend a huge thank you to the team from Atherton and Associates for their incredible effort and dedication in supporting The Wingate Centre. Their recent achievement—raising £700 through a challenging hike up Snowdon—shows their commitment to making a difference. Luckily, they were greeted with clear skies and breathtaking views at the summit!
Scaling New Heights for The Wingate Centre
Atherton and Associates have consistently gone above and beyond for us over the years, from skydiving and mufti days to painting fences and now, taking on Snowdon. Each event has brought in vital support and helped brighten lives to those who benefit from The Wingate Centre.
Thank you, Atherton and Associates, for every mile, every step, and every effort. Your support truly makes a difference, and we are deeply grateful for all you do!
Every Little Helps
The Wingate Centre is incredibly grateful to have been chosen by the community through Tesco's Stronger Starts programme, where blue tokens are used to vote for local charities. Thanks to this support, we received £500 in funding, which will make a huge difference in the services we provide for individuals with special educational needs and disabilities.
Tesco later visited our centre to capture the amazing work we do, and we want to extend a sincere thank you both to the community for choosing us and to Tesco for including us in this impactful program. Your support truly makes a difference!
The Wingate Centre will be at the Nantwich Food Festival on Friday, 30th August! We'll be sharing information about our community groups, more about our charity, and how you can get involved—whether it's by supporting our work or simply making a purchase at the Sunshine Café.
Whether you're interested in learning about our inclusive programmes, supporting our mission, or just want to say hello, we'd love to see you. Come down and check us out in the town square—we look forward to seeing you!
