Seven-year-old fundraises in a gooey way!

Seven-year-old Abhay Chavan chose the gooiest way to fundraise for QEHB Charity and sold slime to his friends!

He decided he wanted to fundraise for the Charity as both of his parents work at the hospital. His dad, Shivanand, is an anaesthetist, and his mom, Mamata, works in the Microbiology Labs.

Abhay even got his dad to help him with the fundraising and sold him some slime too! He raised £8.25 by selling the slime and then his dad matched it, bringing his total raised to £16.50!

Sophie Carroll, Senior Fundraiser at QEHB Charity, said: “Thank you to Abhay for thinking of fundraising for the Charity and coming up with such a good idea to raise money! We hope to see more of your fundraising ideas in the future!”

The money that Abhay has raised will be able to fund things like a toy for a radiothreapy patient who has just finished their treatment, and lollipops for chemotherapy patients to take away the horrible taste in their mouths whilst receiving treatment.
