BRIGG GLOBETROTTER STEPS UP LOCAL FUNDRAISING


Well-known in Brigg as a charity fundraiser, Andrew 'Sass' Markham informs us that he has been supporting Prostate Cancer Awareness as part of Men's Health Week.
He is seen here, collection bucket in hand, with DHL Scunthorpe shift supervisor Shaun Stanfield (right).
Andrew tells us that Brigg Rotary Club "kindly helped with the materials."
He is also part of a Brigg group which has raised a great deal of money in recent years for Pancreatic Cancer Action and continues to promote local awareness of this disease.
A long-serving goalkeeper with Brigg Hockey Club, 'Sass' once hitch-hiked his way around the world on a limited budget and has visited a huge number of league football grounds in England, Scotland and Wales.
The former town councillor is one of Brigg's most widely-travelled current residents.
