All three of Paultons Park’s charity partners o er support to those with life-limiting illnesses. e Karen Ingram Foundation was founded in 2008, in memory of Karen Jane Ingram who sadly passed away a er battling with Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, aged just 40. e charity works to raise awareness of the disease and the donated funds support clinical research. Young Lives vs Cancer works to ease the many hardships faced by children and young people with cancer and their families. Liz Blunt, Senior Fundraising Engagement Manger for Young Lives vs Cancer (Hampshire) said: “We are over the moon to be working with the award winning Paultons Park. To receive £15,000 makes such an impact on the support that can be given to children and young people with cancer and their families. We only have our team of Young Lives vs Cancer Social Workers and Jean’s House, our ‘Home from Home’ in Southampton close by to Southampton Hospital thanks to the kindness of companies like Paultons Park.” James Mancey, Operations Director at Paultons Park said: “Playing an active role in our local community is a key pillar in our Paultons Promise and is our commitment to helping to make the world a better place. Over the past 40 years, we have eagerly supported local causes, and I am incredibly proud that we have been able to donate such significant funds to three brilliant charities in Hampshire this year. We chose to expand our charity partnership programme earlier this year to ensure we were supporting causes and organisations of all sizes, and ensure donations are reaching those who need it most.” Earlier this year, Paultons Park expanded its charitable scheme to formally support the Karen Ingram Foundation as its small charity partner and Young Lives vs Cancer as its medium charity partner. e family-owned attraction has supported Southampton Children’s Hospital Charity since 2019, and the organisation remains Paultons Park’s headline charity. To date, Paultons Park has raised over £150,000 for Southampton Children’s Hospital Charity which has been used to refurbish and equip a specialist sensory playroom for patients and create a designated play and activity space within the Children’s Hospital. Paultons Park raises funds for its charity partners throughout the year through a variety of events, activities, and via guest donations. Donation points where visitors can tap to donate are positioned around the attraction, and funds from these are split equally between the three charity partners. Earlier in the year, three members of the Paultons Park marketing team undertook a 15,000 tandem skydive, to raise funds and awareness for Southampton Childrens Hospitals Charity’s crucial work.
