StairBox and Wooden Windows donate £10,000 to hospice.

UK manufacturer of timber staircases and wooden windows and doors, StairBox and Wooden Windows, swapped building materials for live music and inflatables, hosting their first charity family fun day event in support of Dougie Mac Hospice.

A long-standing supporter of the Staffordshire-based charity, which provides hospice services to local people with life-limiting illnesses, the event was held at Endon Cricket Club, attracting hundreds of families to the activities.

The day was said to be filled with family-fun including giant inflatables, fair-ground stalls, garden games and live music with entertainment provided by local band Stepping Lane.

Craig Dagg, Event Organiser and Facilities Manager at StairBox and Wooden Windows says this event was a change from their usual corporate fundraising events, with an aim to bring fun to the local community:

He said: “This year we wanted to do something a little different on our charity fundraising calendar. We wanted our StairBox employees to be able to take a break from the tools, raise important funds, whilst also engaging with the Staffordshire community.

“The event was a fantastic success raising £10,000 for Dougie Mac. We couldn’t have achieved this event without the fantastic support from the venue – Endon Cricket Club – and our suppliers including KDM events.”

Due to the great turnout and feedback from visitors, StairBox is already looking at dates to hold a similar event in 2027.

Stairbox and Wooden Windows employees also took part in the Dougie Mac Moonlight Walk on 18 June, raising £612.50, meaning they were able to hand over a combined total of £10,612.50 in donations.
