A charity coffee morning has raised over £450 in memory of Richmondshire District Council’s former Chairman.
When Councillor John Robinson died earlier this year, his colleagues agreed to continue to fund raise for his three chosen charities.
Councillor Robinson had already raised £1,044 for St Teresa’s Hospice, Richmondshire Community and Voluntary Action and St Mary’s Church Bell Fund. The coffee morning on Thursday March 31 at Richmond Town Hall added £456.92 to the pot.
Organised by Councillor Stuart Parsons it was attended by the new chairman, Councillor Caroline Thornton-Berry who has vowed to continue to fund raise for the charities.
