Two themed nights in a specially erected marquee at The Scenic Inn pub will mean thousands of pounds for the charities – Macmillan Cancer Care, Muscular Dystrophy and Children’s Hospice. A sponsored parachute jump was also undertaken by 17 brave volunteers.
Money is still coming in and when the final tally is known representatives of each charity will receive an equal share.
