Stage Spiders is a student-led volunteering society that works with children and young people to encourage their confidence and creativity.

It also raises money for a number of charities such as Demelza Children’s Hospice and Roald Dahl’s Marvellous Children’s Charity.

This November, Stage Spiders took to the plaza in their pajamas and onesies to raise money for Children in Need. They had a brilliant day spent outside Essentials in their onesies and pyjamas, painting faces and speaking to students who were passing by. In total they managed to raise £264.74. With the money they raised from their Virgin Money fundraising page this total was boosted to an amazing £434.74.
