HARTINGTON AND DISTRICT COMMUNITY FIRST RESPONDERS (HDCFR) GIVEN A “HEAD START” BY THE GENEROUS SUPPORT OF THE BRITISH LEGION AND ODDFELLOWS

The newly formed HDCFR has been given a major financial boost with the fund raising exploits over Christmas time in Hartington. A fantastic disco held in Hartington British Legion alongside a prize draw organised by the Grand Order of Manchester Oddfellows raised the incredible amount of £1,500 of which £1,300 was given to HDCFR. This will make such a difference to our capacity to be able to support the training and equipment needed for our newly trained responders. Thank you to not only the Legion and Oddfellows, but the communities of Hartington and district in making this vision become reality.
