On Saturday December 3rd 2016, a charity race night with auction and raffle was held for Cardiac Risk in the Young. The venue was Allscott Sports & Social Club in Telford and was attended by members, family and friends. A lot of hard work went into making this event a success by Peter Starling who is the Chairman of the sports club and organised the races, and Caron Coates who wrote numerous letters to companies, football clubs and local businesses asking for prizes to be donated for the auction and raffle and was done in memory of Danielle Rowe, who sadly passed away in May 2016.
This was the first event done for CRY at the sports club and it was very well attended with many people commenting about what a great cause it was and what a good time they’d had during the evening. The amount raised for the event was £2,650. Everyone involved in the charity night can feel immensely proud that their support and generosity will enable more screening, that will ultimately saves lives.
