Thanks to funders for 2019-2020 race season

Thank you to all of our incredible funders for the 2019 season, without them the charity simply would no longer exist. We are very thankful to all the local supporters in the close knit community who choose to donate their Co-op membership community funds to our programme. Also many thanks to the local community for donating items to the Benarty Community Shop and for their area committee to decide to donate funds raised from those buying goods to our cause.
