Jolly Crofters Fundraising Team

24th February 2013

On Saturday 16th February 2013, seven members of the team’s Support Group and one friend of the team were on duty over eight hours at ASDA Astley Bridge for our first charity store collection of 2013.

Not only was this our first store collection of 2013, it is also the first of a series of store collections being undertaken solely by our fantastic Support Group.

Now that the total has been counted and checked, we are pleased to report the fantastic sum of £442.29 was raised.

Many thanks to the generous customers at ASDA for their wonderful support and appreciative comments made to our collectors, and special thanks to Christine Baldwin, ASDA Astley Bridge store’s Community Life Champion, who so kindly gave permission for us to collect, and greeted us with such warm hospitality.
