Histon Manor raises an incredible £16,860 for Break
23 Mar 2026
Throughout 2025, the amazing team at Histon Manor – an exclusive Grade II listed venue in Cambridgeshire – went above and beyond in support of Break.
Thanks to their generosity and dedication, they raised an incredible £16,860 to help us continue our work supporting young people growing up in care and leaving care.
When Histon Manor first chose Break as their Charity of the Year 2025, they set themselves a minimum fundraising target of £5,000.
Over the course of the year, they hosted a range of charity events, including a Plein Air Artist of the Year event and a Village Dahlia Show, while also donating several event fees and 10% of their corporate booking revenue. They encouraged many of their suppliers to support us too, with donations from organisations such as The Highfield Event Group, Cambridge Building Society and Elle-Events Management.
In total, the team managed to raise more than three times their original target!
Ellie Middleton, Break Partnerships Manager said:
“We’d like to say a huge thank you to Katherine, the brilliant team of volunteers at Histon Manor and the Histon village community for raising an incredible £16,860 for Break. It was wonderful to see their enthusiasm, creativity and commitment throughout the year, and we’re really grateful for their fantastic fundraising efforts. This support will make a real and lasting difference for young people leaving care. From all of us at Break – thank you, Histon Manor!”
Katherine Mann, Owner of Histon Manor added:
“We loved working with Break and are delighted to have raised so much, and to have managed to raise the profile of what Break do to so many people. When I was choosing Histon Manor’s charity for 2025, Break stood out to me because of the real difference they make to young people leaving care. It’s the kind of support that can change the direction of someone’s life, and that’s something we wanted to get behind.”
