A Wonderful Year with Momentum Children's Charity

GARSONS ESHER, SURREY

As our year-long charity partnership with Momentum Children’s Charity comes to a close, we’re proud to reflect on an incredibly meaningful journey filled with community spirit, compassion, and generosity.

Throughout the 2024/25 year, our Garsons Esher team worked alongside the amazing team at Momentum to raise awareness and vital funds in support of families with seriously ill children across Surrey, London, and the surrounding areas.

We are delighted to share that thanks to the kindness and support of our customers and staff, we raised an incredible £3,367.39 for the charity.

Momentum Children’s Charity works tirelessly to ensure that no family faces the unimaginable alone. Through their tailored support services- ranging from counselling and play therapy to hospital support workers and respite breaks- Momentum offers a lifeline to families.

Throughout the partnership, activities included dedicating our in-store tills to the charity’s collection tins, welcoming them to utilise our retail and event space for fundraising events, displaying a Christmas donation giving tree in-store, donating a percentage of event ticket sales from an event, gifting numerous stock items for raffles and prizes, providing farm experiences to their Echoe families, and promoting awareness through our channels.

“We were honoured to have Momentum Children's Charity as our Charity of the Year during 2024/25. Victoria and the team have been a joy to work with. Their dedication shines through with such enthusiasm and positivity as they raise vital funds to provide support, ensuring that no family copes alone through incredibly tough times, and is a testament to their commitment. Thank you to all our customers and staff who have helped us support this admirable charity.”


Ben Thompson, Director, Garsons

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed, whether through donations, volunteering, or simply showing up to support the cause. It has been a privilege to stand alongside Momentum Children’s Charity, and we look forward to witnessing the continued impact of their incredible work.
