 The team at Mitchell’s Miracles have been working hard this year to bring more light-hearted entertainment to our supporters. Have you ever wanted to be an investigator? If the answer is YES, then we have the perfect event for you… On Saturday the 29th October, Mitchell’s Miracles will be teaming up with the “Spirit Paranormal” ghost hunting group for a night to remember, investigating the hauntings of Redoubt Fort in Harwich. The moated Redoubt Fort was built in 1808 and is an impressive 180ft (60m) diameter circular building used to defend the port of Harwich against a Napoleonic invasion. Ten guns sit on the battlements. Eighteen casements below would house 300 troops in siege conditions. It mounted ten 24-pounders and housed a regiment of soldiers with sufficient food and stores to with stay a lengthy siege. Fortunately, it was never called upon to demonstrate its powers. The fort was restored by the Harwich Society as a voluntary project. Part of the fort is now used as a military museum. Battle re-enactments and other events are held during the summer months. For more information visit Harwich Redoubt Fort. Certified paranormal investigator, Jan Saunders, is really excited to be supporting Mitchell’s Miracles with this charitable event. Jan has many stories of her experiences whilst investigating the many venues they visit around the UK. Jan assured me that all participants interested, will be given the chance to experience some of their great ghost hunting equipment, such as, K2’s, REM pods, trail cameras, music boxes, SLS’s, lasers, Dictaphones and more. SO…If you are looking for a more unique challenge, and are up for a scare, then please join us on an eerie, ghost experience tour of “Harwich Fort” …enter at your own risk! You could take this experience a little further, as there is an option to bed down in the fort for the night. You can pitch a tent up in the moat area and have a 360 view of the surrounding spooky area… “Whatever You Do, Don’t Fall Asleep.” Fancy dress is optional, but there will be a ghostbusting prize for the best costume. Venue: Harwich Fort, Main Rd, HARWICH. CO12 3LT Date: Saturday 29th October Time: 7pm to 3am Price: £37.00 pp All you need to do is bring yourself, a torch and some spare underwear!!

 As September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, we would like to take this opportunity to highlight what children with childhood cancer have to face as part of their treatment. Certain cancers such as Neuroblastoma, Leukaemia or Lymphoma can lower the platelet count. The abnormal cells in these cancers can crowd out healthy cells in the bone marrow, where platelets are made. Platelets, or thrombocytes, are small, colourless cell fragments in our blood that form clots and stop or prevent bleeding. Platelets are made in our bone marrow, the sponge-like tissue inside our bones. Bone marrow contains stem cells that develop into red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Signs and symptoms can include:
 Mitchell receiving bloods If a child’s platelet count is too low, it could affect receiving their Chemotherapy. How can you help? You can show your support by Going Gold for the month of September and by donating platelets, bloods, funds or time. All contributions are greatly appreciated! Receiving bloods is vital, without a normal haemoglobin count they can become asymptomatic. Signs and symptoms can include:
Please, share to show you care. By Sharing our posts, you can help spread awareness to our cause, which could save a child's life…it only takes a few minutes! 💛  After such a great success last year (and many requests to repeat the display again this year) we take great pleasure in inviting you to..  2021 - Carly Dann from Infinity Circus with spectators Mitchell's 2nd Annual Magnificent Fireworks Display!
