It’s A Knockout will take place on Sunday, June 4 at Harrogate Railway Athletic FC

For those of you who may not know, HHCC funds specialist equipment, training and services; going above and beyond the provision of the NHS to help enhance treatment and facilities.

We are the registered charity for Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust (HDFT).

As the nights are getting lighter, this means that summer is on the horizon!

What better way to start off the summer season than taking on an inflatable obstacle course with 10 of your family, friends or colleagues to raise money for your local NHS!

HHCC’s Summer Extravaganza featuring It’s A Knockout will take place on Sunday, June 4 at Harrogate Railway Athletic FC, HG2 7JA.

Get your team of 10 together and take on this incredible challenge to compete to be crowned ‘It’s A Knockout’ Champions 2023'.

There are limited places available so make sure you sign up soon to avoid disappointment!

If inflatable obstacle courses are not up your street, we’d be delighted for you to still join us for this fun filled day exploring our handpicked stalls, donkey rides, bouncy castle, face painting and licenced bar.

Tickets are available now for a donation of £6 for adults and children over the age of three and £20 for a family of four. Under three’s go free!

Another exciting event coming up this June, is the long awaited Harrogate Proms.

After three postponements due to the pandemic, we are delighted to be working alongside the Harrogate Symphony Orchestra (HSO) and Harrogate Choral Society (HCS) who are joining forces to present a special showcase concert to raise funds for HHCC.

The programme will feature a feast of operatic and ‘Proms’ favourites as well as other popular works.

Tickets are available from Harrogate Box Office.

It would be lovely see some familiar faces attend!

The team and I are excited to welcome you to all our events this year and be able to showcase how you can make a difference.

Make sure you keep up to date with my columns to learn how you can positively impact your local NHS.
