Whitehaven Prom cancellation students gift money to Hospice at Home West Cumbria
Former The Whitehaven Academy Year 11 students Caitlin Miller and Carenza Curwen with the charity cheque
Big-hearted students got over their prom cancellation disappointment by donating funds to help a West Cumbrian charity.
The former Year 11 students at The Whitehaven Academy were forced to ditch their celebratory party last year when coronavirus hit.
Instead, they decided to put the money they raised and collected to good use in their local community by supporting Hospice at Home West Cumbria.
The donation of £2,500 has delighted staff at Hospice at Home, which has seen its fund-raising efforts hit hard by lockdown restrictions.

Last year was difficult for us all, but that didn’t stop people in Wales thinking of others and selflessly helping those in need.
Stagecoach South Wales staff are a prime example of this, as they continue to support local communities by raising money for charity and donating items to food banks.
Nigel Winter, managing director of Stagecoach South Wales, explained: “We’re extremely proud of all our staff that go above and beyond to fundraise for the communities that they proudly serve every day.
PUPILS and staff at a Chester high school have been going above and beyond to help families in need over the past month. Since joining staff to run a 5km DIY Santa Dash and drumming up over £1,500 in sponsorship for The Hospice of the Good Shepherd and Blue Skies Balcony Appeal at the Countess of Chester Hospital, Queen s Park High School s Sixth Form Leadership Team have organised a whole school charity event to raise money for Save the Children and support The West Cheshire Food Bank. Before Christmas, to coincide with Christmas Jumper Day, The Sixth Form Team encouraged all students and staff to bring in non-perishable food items to support their drive in helping those local people in crisis over Christmas.
