Receiving no funding from the government or national lottery the charity relies almost entirely upon the generosity of the public.
Local volunteers are holding a charity night event at Beecham’s Social Club on Saturday, at 7pm, and invite the public to support by purchasing tickets priced £5. There will be a silent auction and raffle held during the evening.
Once again, a big thank-you to the staff and customers at Morrisons and hope to see many of you at our local charity fun night. For further details or tickets, please ring Sue or Dave on 01903 522909.
