A total of £812.50 has been raised by members of the Rotary Club of Stowmarket Gipping Valley after they held a Wheelbarrow of Booze raffle at the Woolpit Steam Rally.

The wheelbarrow containing various bottles of wine was the first prize, a basket of fizz was the second and a bucket of beer was the third.  

The raffle was won by Sharron Curtis and it helped to raise £812.50 which will be used to aid many local charities.

The weather was very kind especially on the second day with unusually (for this period) … a lack of rain. 

The Rotary Club is grateful to Travis Perkins who donated the wheelbarrow, Nethergate Brewery of Long Melford and the Humber Doucy Brewery of Bacton who both gave bottles of beer.

The Rotary Club of Stowmarket Gipping Valley usually meet once every two weeks at the Limes Hotel in Needham Market and sometimes by Zoom. For further information please contact richard@tingeys.co.uk/
