Maytree Bank Holiday Fun Day

The Maytree Pub in Bristol turned the Spring Bank Holiday into a brilliant community fundraiser on 25th May, hosting a Family Fun Day in support of The Brightwell.

Running from midday until late, the event brought together local families, supporters, and volunteers for a full day of activities and entertainment.

The pub garden was packed with things to enjoy, including stall holders, bake stalls, ice cream, a BBQ, and a face painter. DJs kept the atmosphere lively throughout the day, adding to the sense of community and celebration.

The event was organised by Kelly, daughter of our Oxygen Co‑ordinator Angela and manager of the Maytree Pub. She and her team put in a huge amount of work to make the day run smoothly. A quiz and raffle added to the fun, with an impressive selection of prizes up for grabs, including Bristol City tickets, a tattoo voucher, a Bike, a paintballing experience, a £50 pub bar tab, and several other donated items. Every ticket sold helped raise funds and awareness for The Brightwell.

By the end of the day, the Maytree team had raised an incredible £2,257.26. Their support helps us continue providing vital services to our community, and we’re extremely grateful for their effort and enthusiasm.

A huge thank you goes to Kelly and the Maytree Pub team for organising and hosting the event, to everyone who volunteered or donated prizes, and to all who attended and contributed. Your involvement genuinely makes a difference.
