A huge thank you to the team at Sutton Winson who have raised a momentous £1,717 (so far!) following their “Man v Mountain Challenge” that occurred on the 2nd September.
The Sutton Winson Mountain Team, consisting of Rob Lewis-Mayston, Nick Brayne, Michelle Donnachie, Arthur Goddard and including ex employee Henry Grace, took part in the mammoth challenge which included a 22mile run up and over Mount Snowdon, abseiling, kayaking and a plunge into an ice-cold lake.
Seed Marketing Volleyball Tournament
Huge thanks to everyone who participated in the @Seedmarketing Volleyball tournament last Friday. An amazing £3,850 was raised to help the homeless in Brighton and Hove. MacMillan Wealth ended as worthy winners.
Last Friday, we took part in the Seed Marketing Volleyball tournament, where our team (Roy, Sarah, Daniel, Michael Cheetham, Ali Poole and Elliya Cook) played in an seven team tournament to raise funds for Off The Fence at the Yellow Wave Beach Volleyball centre on Madeira Drive.
The two finalists, MacMillan Wealth and Seed Marketing played in a hard fought final with Macmillan winning through (with the questionable assistance of a Volleyball champion from Brazil) who towered over the other players.
This was followed by a BBQ and drinks – and a superb raffle. The end result was an amazing £3,875 raised in just one evening. Well done Seed Marketing and all the participants.
Sewing workshop at Gateway Women’s Centre!
The women at Gateway recently enjoyed a sewing workshop – everyone went home with a tote bag made on the sewing machines. For some, it was the first time ever using a machine.
It was great to use our new studio to host this workshop and have the space to spread out comfortably. A very productive afternoon!

OTF Schools Team take on national role in running prayer spaces at Wildfire 2023
Our Schools Team was invited by the Nation PSIS Prayer Spaces leadership to help run prayer sessions at Wildfires
Having run Prayer Spaces in Schools for the last 10 years our Schools team were excited to be invited to run the PSIS tent at Wildfires.
Lizzi & Suzanne teamed up with PSIS national director Tim Abbott to create a prayer experience at the centre of the Wildfires festival.
Arriving on Sunday evening with boxes full of kit, we worked into the night, with only fairy lights to see by!
The next 3 days saw 1000s of people from across the country, of all ages pitch their tents on the Wiston estate.
Our prayer tent was just one of many initiatives to help people to explore the Christian faith. We set up 8 different prayer activities and we delighted to see individuals, couples and whole families come in to explore prayer together.
Each day we spent 30 minutes telling people all about PSIS and how they could take ideas back to their local schools.
It was a privilege to work with the national PS team and to spend 3 days in a tent in the Sussex countryside helping people to pray!
