Wortley fundraiser nets £1,700 for Candlelighters

By Jean Hollings

Wortley’s Stacy Procter and her pink team of supporters hosted another fundraiser for children’s cancer charity Candlelighters on a cold February Saturday afternoon.

St John’s Hall was buzzing, with many stalls from cakes to tombola (including bottles, chocolate, toys and many more). 

With 57 main raffle prizes to be won the draw started promptly at 3.30pm. Hot and cold refreshments were also available to purchase. 

The total raised so far has passed the £1,700 mark. This will support any of the 150 children and their families who are diagnosed every year with cancer in Yorkshire. Support may include research, support groups, peer mentoring, equipment for the oncology wards and more. 

A regular gift can impact their income. Visit the Candlelighters website for more details.
