We are so pleased to announce that our latest Company of the Month is Quality Bearings Online!

Quality Bearings Online began supporting us 2022, the same year they celebrated their 10-year anniversary. They kicked off their fundraising efforts with a member of their staff participating in Tough Mudder. Harry Shelborn completed the enduring mud run and obstacle course in an exhilarating effort to raise money for our families.

Since then, the company have shown their support through plenty of fundraising activities such as a charity bake sale on World Bake Day in May, and they had a courageous team take on the Candlelighters Abseil. They have also been kind enough to gift their VIP box at First Direct Arena for our families to use – the Paw Patrol and Disney on Ice performances were certainly a hit with patients and siblings!

Denny Maude, Director at Quality Bearings Online said, “We would just like to say a huge thank you to Candlelighters for making QBOL its ‘Company of the Month’ for May. It’s an incredible recognition for our team and we couldn’t be prouder to be supporting such a fantastic organisation as Candlelighters, we know the amazing work you do for the families fighting children’s cancer.

We’re always looking to raise money from any opportunity that arises, from Harry doing the ‘Tough Mudder’, organising a charity bake sale, to doing the Candlelighters abseil, we’re so pleased that we can help in any way that we can.

We look forward to more of these fundraising events in the future!”

Iain Blackwood-Hobbs, our Partnerships Executive, said, “We are so grateful to have the support of the brilliant team at QBOL. They get stuck in with a range of fundraising activities all to support families facing unimaginable circumstances. It’s thanks to support like theirs that we can provide a range of emotional, practical, and financial support to families to help them through a childhood cancer diagnosis. It’s an absolute pleasure to work with Team QBOL to make our support possible.”

QBOL have set an incredible fundraising target of £5,000 for this year. We cannot wait to continue our journey with a company that has shown us brilliant support so far! Thank you, Quality Bearings Online!
