The Yorkshire Area entered Clifton Wood Soap Box Derby Challenge recently in aid of Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice.

John Parker commented: “Many thanks to everyone who came to support us; Gordon, our driver; Roger, Wayne and James, the pit crew, and James’ daughter, Milly, who was the team photographer.

A great day was had by everyone with lots of interest in Little Mix showing our support for the local community.

There was no trophy this year but with a little bit of engineering……… roll on the next race. Next year it would be great to see a tanker or tipper if anyone is up for the challenge? So far this year we have raised £1,700 for the hospice with another £1,300 needed.”

At Bluebell Wood they support over 250 children and young people with a shortened life expectancy. Without the help of people like you they couldn’t help as many families. It costs over £4million each year to run the hospice. Under 10% of this is Government funding so every penny really does count.  More information about this organisation can be found at: http://www.bluebellwood.org/our-services/
