Ruddi’s Retreat, in collaboration with Social Progress, Sophie Seddon PR, Katie Walden Illustration and Claire Coxhead Design are on a mission to find businesses and individuals to become valued sponsors and supporters aka Rockstars & Roadies.
Every year, families affected by cancer and other challenging times miss out on the simple pleasure of a holiday together. They need your support and so we’re launching a brand new initiative to help raise valuable funds to support Ruddi’s Retreat Charity.
Although locally based this grassroots charity supports families nationally.
We’re calling on you and your organisation to help change that.
By joining our Ruddi’s Rockstar programme, you will give families supported by Ruddi’s Retreat a week of fun, laughter, and time together, all while letting your business sparkle.

Ruddi’s Story:
Diagnosed at just six months with a rare form of cancer, Ruddi inspired the creation of Ruddi’s Retreat.
Fifteen years later, a cafe shop, five caravans and thousands of holidays later, they’re still changing lives, one holiday at a time.
