We would like to thank everyone who came to the shoot and helped make another successful day. We have donated over £3700 to local groups which includes helping fund 50% of two more defibrillators one at Holwick and one at Newbiggin, so over the past four years we have donated over £12,000 to local groups and organizations. Without your support we could not have done this.

Thanks Again from the Mitchell Family – Stephen would have been so proud !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
