From the bottom of our hearts… thank you. 💙
As we reflect on HendrixFest 2026, we are overwhelmed with gratitude. To every single person who bought a ticket, volunteered, performed, sponsored, held a stall, donated, or simply came along to support us on Saturday… thank you.
What started as a way to honour our beautiful boy, Hendrix, has grown into something so much bigger than we ever imagined. Seeing lots of families laughing, playing, dancing, and making memories together, all while supporting bereaved families, was truly special.
A massive thank you to Torbay Party Barn for once again welcoming us and providing the perfect home for HendrixFest.
To our incredible entertainment, thank you for giving your time and talent to make the day unforgettable:

A huge thank you to Lloydies Entertainment for keeping the music flowing between performances and creating such an amazing atmosphere throughout the day.
To every wonderful small business in our Market Barn, thank you for choosing to be part of HendrixFest and supporting our mission.
Special thanks to Mane Events for the fantastic range of inflatables, Katie from Little Sprouts for the incredible messy play area, Michelle from Acorns Nursery for providing toys for our youngest visitors, Where Is Bonnie for keeping children smiling and entertained, Kmfacepainter for making lots of little faces bright and colourful and Delusions Children's Entertainment for creating masterpieces with balloons.
Thank you to Sidswoodfiredpizza and Philip from For the love of pies for feeding our hungry guests.
We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to our incredible sponsors CDM Industrial Roofing & Cladding, LW Construction Limited, O'Neill and Holman, Dunns Building , Dunns Roofing, Higher Level Scaffolding , RYALL Structural Engineers and BNI Riviera Chapter. Your generosity and belief in our mission helped make HendrixFest possible. Your support allowed us to create a fun, affordable day for families while raising vital funds to continue supporting bereaved parents and families throughout the year.
By standing alongside us, you’re not only supporting an event you’re helping to ensure that no family has to face the loss of a baby or child alone. We are so grateful to have you as part of the charities family.
Most importantly, thank you to our incredible volunteers. Behind every smile, every activity, every raffle ticket sold and every little detail was a team of people who gave their time so selflessly. We couldn’t have done it without you.
Every ticket purchased, every donation made, every game played and every burger or pizza bought has helped us continue our work supporting families facing the unimaginable heartbreak of losing a baby or child. Because of you, we can continue providing memory boxes, keepsakes, counselling support, food vouchers and compassionate care when families need it most.
HendrixFest is so much more than a family fun day. It is a celebration of love, remembrance, hope and community. It is Hendrix’s legacy, and thanks to every one of you, that legacy continues to make a difference.
From our family, our trustees and everyone at the charity… thank you for helping us keep Hendrix’s memory alive while bringing hope to so many others.
We’ll never be able to thank you enough.
