Boxing Day 2004

was when a Tsunami hit the Far East and Sri Lanka, and thousands of people lost their lives.

It was also the day when the seed of Ocean Stars was planted in Dilanee Bunter's head as she went for a walk on Boxing Day evening. More about the  Ocean Stars story can be found on our website in the section Our Story and by scrolling down to Dilanee's Story.

Amazingly Ocean Stars Trust will be 20 year years old next year. We plan to celebrate this milestone in every way possible!

We are hoping that supporters and friends will join us in organising 20 fundraising events to celebrate our 20 years of operations.

We are organising a celebration party on Saturday 22nd March which will be a ticketed celebration. Please put the date in your diary and come and celebrate this special occasion with us.

More information about our celebration will be available in due course.
