Fundraising Auction & Raffle for The Hollies Community Hub, Musselburgh.
We were very grateful to receive many donations, from those taking part in the event, club members and friends of the club.
Club Captain, Steve Hill commented “On Saturday 5th November we held an auction and raffle in their clubhouse in aid of The Hollies Community Hub and raised a grand total of £3203. As well as thanking everyone for their donations, we would also like to thank everyone who bought raffle tickets, sold books of raffle tickets, or assisted by advertising our auction and raffle fundraiser.”
He added “Our club is proud of its long history of supporting charities and in particular local charities in the Musselburgh area and we hope this donation to The Hollies will help them through a difficult winter.”
