Norwood is celebrating a £3.3 million windfall from its 36-hour online fundraiser on Sunday and Monday.

Held in place of an annual dinner, the matched giving drive surpassed its £2.6 million target following a bonus round.

Speaking afterwards, chief executive Dr Beverley Jacobson praised the “incredible” support the charity had received from both existing donors and the wider community.

“The #TogetherWeAre campaign was conceived to celebrate the relationships at the heart of Norwood which are so important in enabling and empowering the people we support to live meaningful and fulfilling lives. That sense of togetherness has never been more apparent than over the last 36 hours.”
