Since the Murder Mystery Night of 3rd July 2009, fundraising has continued, including:
- Fashion show at Twist Night Club in November 2009
- Dave Evans selling road map books at work
Through this time, members of Rochdale's Ladies Only Ltd gym have been contributing through:
- donating commission from the sale of beanies
- donating commission from Body Shop parties
- Christmas raffle
- selling handmade cards at the gym
- donating second hand books to the gym for re-sale
In a larger, now annual, event via Ladies Only Ltd, a Sponsored Slim over the 12 weeks to Christmas 2011 raised £2500. 38 participants, mostly members or the friends and family of members, took part with the support of instructors at the gym doing weekly weigh-ins, studying food diaries, weekly email tips and recipes, plus free use of the gym with exercise routines prescribed by the instructors. The biggest loser was gym member Lynn Plant who decided at the last minute to take part and lost 19lbs. The cumulative total weight loss was 221 lbs (nearly 16 stone)
The fund's donation into the NHS Christie Trust was £4800 in March 2012 and has been used in the purchase of the following equipment to benefit cancer patients :
- A Hospira Chemotherapy Pump
- A 5' underbench pharmacy fridge - needed for the Clinical Trials Unit to safely store chemotherapy drugs once they have been made up into an infusional treatment
- Appetito Hot Food system for the Critcal Care Unit
