Newstone House Care Home in Sturminster Newton has raised £2,441 (and one penny!) for Sturminster Newton Heritage Trust following a year-long partnership in 2024.
The trust, which oversees the town’s iconic mill and museum, collaborated with the care home to bring local history to life through events, talks, and a successful Christmas fair.
Newstone House, built on the site of the town’s former creamery, played host to a series of afternoon events celebrating Sturminster Newton’s heritage, engaging both residents and the wider community.
To mark the success of the fundraising efforts, Home Manager April King and resident Elaine Greensmith presented a cheque to Heritage Trust Trustees Jane Palmer and Zilla Brown.
With another charity partnership ahead for 2025, the care home is now setting its sights on surpassing this impressive total in the year ahead.
