Teenagers Raise Money For Five Villages First Responders
First Responders & Air Ambulance benefit from August fun day
Two teenagers, who held a series of fundraising events during August, to raise money for Five Villages First Responders and the Air Ambulance, presented cheques to the ‘good causes’ this month.
Misterton
girls, Jade Anderton and Abygayle Wood together took part in the
Humberside Police Lifestyle project and together named their team,
'Make A Difference' (MAD).
They took part in a sponsored swim, attended Misterton Primary School
Leavers’ BBQ, held a bake sale, organised a fun day, and had
a stall at Epworth Show – and raised a fantastic grand total
of £602.50p, including a ‘pump-priming’ donation
of £200 from North Notts Lions. So Five Villages First Responders
and the Yorkshire Air Ambulance received cheques for £301.25p
each.
The Lifestyle project is designed to increase the amount of positive contact between Humberside Police and the young people of our area. Encouraged by police prompting, young people become involved in community projects during the long summer holidays.
A very big thank you to Jade and Abygayle, as well as Jade's Mum Hayley, for all their hard work and dedication. Thanks also to all those who supported the events and helped raise funds.
