CHEQUE IT OUT! BRIGG RALLIES ROUND FOR LEGION & PANCREATIC CANCER CHARITIES

3 cheques, totalling £360, for Pancreatic Cancer presented by Town Mayor Coun Edward Arnott . 
Brigg Town Council requested our attendance for cheque presentations in the Market Place to three Pancreatic Cancer charities and  the Royal British Legion.  The latter included  the proceeds of a concert held in the Angel Suite.
The Legion's Brigg Branch was involved in organising the annual 10k race, while the district's total for the poppy appeal stood at more than £20,000 on the day we took these pictures, with the likelihood this impressive total will increase.
Coun Andrew Markham worked hard during Pancreatic Cancer Month with  Zoe Hall, who wrote to the Town Council, seeking its support. There was a raffle in Brigg, following which Saturday pub-goers gave generously to boost the total.

3 cheques for Pancreatic Cancer charities and 2 for the Legion.
