Raising Money in Memory of Beth
Hannah Jenkinson, Georgie McGregor, Kimberley Palmer,
Beth Groves and Hannah Findley - Year 10
Beth Mycroft was a young and vibrant girl that sadly had her life shortened before it had
begun. Although her death was not painful it was very much painful for her family and
friends. She died of sudden death syndrome and although she is not here she’s done a
lot. Not just has she raised awareness of the syndrome she has also raised a significant
amount of money. But it wasn’t just her, her family and friends too. We have raised over
£7,000. By losing her own she has saved many other lives. We are all still grieving at the
fact she has gone but we are all getting through it by raising money and awareness. The
school is so proud of all her close friends and family for all the hard work they have done
and for staying strong.
We have presented assemblies in school to raise awareness of the charity and the work it
does. So far we have organised many charity events to raise money for CRY such as: Pretty
Muddy, an event that Beth was meant to attend with Hannah Jenkinson but never got the
chance. We have raised money at the Clowne Gala through bake sale and raffles. At school
we have raised money through bake sales and non-uniform days. Our recent non-uniform
day raised over £600 and a bake sale held by students raised over £200. This money will
be added to the total raised by Beth’s friends and family so far. They have already raised
over £6,000 and are really close to meeting their target of £8,000 as there are more events
planned for the future including a bag pack and a coffee morning. Beth will never be
forgotten in everyone’s hearts. Please help us raising money by donating to CRY so they
can continue their important work.

Children In Need
Mr B Emment
Heritage High School has supported Children in Need for many years and regularly donates a substantial
amount to the charity, this year we are doing things a little differently. Thank you so much to all those staff and
students who bought keyrings, pens and wristbands etc. during the weeks leading up to Friday 13th November.
So far we have raised £400 which is great, we shall of course be having a non uniform day before our Christmas
break and the proceeds of that, all your £1 donations, will be added to the Children in Need total. We h
