Derbyshire bikers' triumph after raising cash for hospice
Big-hearted bikers have raised more than £800 by doing a range of fund-raising activities throughout the year. The group of motorcyclists, many of which are from Bolsover, who go by the name Team Roberts Riders' Association of Triumph Motorbikes '“ or RAT Pack for short raised £883 for St John's Hospice at Balby, Doncaster. The group, who regularly meet up at the Team Roberts shop, raised the cash by holding raffles at meetings, on ride-outs, by holding open days and selling cakes and plants.
Chris Smith, hospice appeal community fundraiser, said: “This is an amazing amount of money raised for our appeal. I want to thank each and every one of the bikers involved, and their families, for working so hard to get the cash rolling in.
“Every penny will go towards making our patients’ lives more comfortable.”
