A HOST of local charities and community groups are set to receive a pre-Christmas boost thanks to the Lymm and District Round Table’s ‘Big Lymm Bonfire’.
The event at Lymm Rugby Club raised a record £7,000 – meaning this year more worthy causes will benefit than ever before.
Bonfire organiser and Round Table member Mike O’ Crowley said: “We’d like to thank all the members of the public who came to the event – we had a bit of a technical issue with the fireworks which meant they went off in two stages however we hope that didn’t spoil anyone’s enjoyment of the evening too much.
“I’m particularly pleased that the new disabled area was well-received and that those who made use of it, such as residents from Cotebrook House, were able to get a good view of the display. Our thanks also go out to Betterprint who carried out a lot of work for us for nothing, the stall holders who kept the crowds well fed and watered and the rugby club who allowed us to host the bonfire here once again.”
The Lymm and District Round Table is one of the most buoyant in the country with a large and enthusiastic membership and regular social and charity events planned throughout the year.
