Community

Crispin Rhodes actively supports several charities and groups, both locally and nationally, either through direct sponsorship or by organising major fundraising events.

In 2008 we organised an exciting event, The Big Big Charity Bash Party Night. Enjoyed by over 350 people, it was a full evening of fun and frivolity and took place at the impressive new Stadium MK in Milton Keynes. Thanks to everyone’s remarkable generosity, we raised an incredible £26,000 for charity!

Brain Tumour Research
In the UK more children and people under the age of 40 die of a brain tumour than from other cancers – yet brain tumour research is woefully under-funded. The charity aims to change that and bring better hope and care to thousands of brain tumour patients and their families. It aims to raise at least £7million per year to fund world-class brain tumour research programmes and projects.

MK Arts for Health
This arts development charity works across the whole spectrum of Milton Keynes' healthcare provision. Established in 2004, it aims to enhance health and healing through creativity. The organisation has successfully developed one of the largest hospital arts collections in the UK, and Angela Rhodes is delighted to be a Trustee of this exciting venture. www.mkartsforhealth.org.uk

Willen Hospice, Milton Keynes
The hospice provides a range of specialist care for people aged 18 and upwards who have life-limiting conditions and are from Milton Keynes and the surrounding areas. Care can be provided as an in-patient, within the beautiful day hospice overlooking the peaceful Willen Lake, or within the patient's own home. The hospice focuses on specialist symptom control, emotional support, spiritual support and care for carers.
