The club raised some £1,050 from its fund-raising activity during December from street collections at the Coop store, with thanks to the support from the store management, and also at the Aldi store, thanks to support once again from manager Richard Goddard.
The annual carol service in conjunction with the Mayor and Council was held at the methodist church on 21st December and the service was conducted by Rev Fran Johnson – and was addressed by Dr Dan Crook from EMICS (East Midlands Immediate Care Scheme) and the collection was in aid of the charity.
The service was followed by a very convivial lunch at the Rutland Arms attended by about 30 guests.
