WHISKEY GALORE HELPS BRIGG L.I.V.E.S.
Brigg LIVES accept a donation from the regulars of the King William at Scawby Brook.
A whiskey tasting session was held, along with a raffle.
There were many types of whiskey on offer including those from Ireland, Wales, Scotland and India.
Some were single malts and and others were blends. They raised a fantastic £100.
We trust Sandy Clarvis, of Brigg, won't mind us re-posting this information she uploaded to the LIVES first responders' Facebook page.
Keep up the good work!
