Donna’s Stars in your Eyes Event

November 2023

We would like to say a very big thank you to one of our wonderful supporters, Donna Kenmuir who has recently held her very own Stars in your Eyes Event with the help of her family and friends. The event took place at their local pub and lots of fun was had by everyone. Donna raised a brilliant £305 for Melanoma Focus whilst raising vital awareness about melanoma.

We are extremely grateful to Donna, her family and friends for putting on such a great event.
