Hospitality Action serves as a vital lifeline for those in the hospitality industry, offering financial assistance, mental health support, and industry-specific programmes.
Your generosity truly makes a difference. Throughout Obsession25, we have hosted an exciting series of silent auctions and raffles, with all proceeds dedicated to supporting Hospitality Action.
Since 2015, Obsession has raised over £500,000 for this incredible cause. With the continued generosity of our guests, by the end of Obsession25, we raised an exceptional amount to support their invaluable work further.
It is important to Northcote to support a local charity and we have worked for many years with East Lancashire Hospice who, for over 35 years, have continuously provided a special way of caring for people suffering from life-limiting illnesses within our community. A life-limiting or life-threatening illness can be very hard to come to terms with and the team at East Lancashire Hospice offer the support that is needed. They provide specialist care, supportive care and end-of-life care for patients and their families, both at the hospice and home.
Northcote’s international charity support goes to EYE Nepal, a small charity dedicated to enhancing the life opportunities of the poorest children in rural districts of Nepal, through better early years education. Remote rural schools are often no more than shacks offering learning with under-qualified teachers, poor attendance and very low literacy levels. In the past decade, Nepal has had to overcome civil and political unrest, devastating earthquakes, all manner of economic difficulties and of course latterly Covid. There has never been a more urgent need to support the early years education of these disadvantaged children. EYE Nepal helps to build and improve the environment of the schools, creating a bright learning experience with new furniture, educational materials, stationery and sporting equipment, along with providing teacher training.
A national charity and patient support organisation for people living with the rare, extremely painful, genetic blistering condition, Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB), also known as ‘Butterfly Skin’. EB causes the skin to become very fragile and tear or blister at the slightest touch. It is a rare condition but because it is rare, few people know about it. DEBRA UK exists to provide care and support to improve the quality of life for people living with EB and also to fund pioneering research to find effective treatments and ultimately a cure for EB. Their vision is a world where no one suffers from this painful skin condition and to find treatments to lessen the day-to-day impact of EB.
