Our thanks go to Mr Leigh Ratcliffe, who works for Graham and Brown. Leigh took part in the Three Bridges 10K race and, through sponsorship, raised £102.00 for the Association. The Association is Graham and Brown’s adopted charity for the year and so they matched Leigh’s donation, raising a total of £204.00 for the Association
Many thanks to you all.
The Annual Saddleworth Beerwalk took place on Saturday 25th May 2002. The Association had a total of 39 walkers taking part, a pleasant increase on the numbers from recent years, so we hope to have raised a good amount of money for the Association. Final figures are still not available, however, they will follow soon, along with photographs of the event.
The adventure weekend took place at YMCA Lakeside in Cumbria at the end of June this year. A great time was had by the parents and children alike. For more about the weekend, see the article in the events section. About the Lakeside weekend

In July we received a phone call from Mr Bill Taylor (who has previously taken part in fundraising activities for the Association) to say that he and a colleague at Rochdale Police Station had a cheque to present to the Tameside and Oldham branch. Bill and Tony Anwas had raised £300.22 through a sponsored slim and we arranged to go along to Rochdale where Peter Shaw accepted the cheque on behalf of the Association.
Many thanks to Tony and Bill.
Many thanks to Graham and Brown. We kindly received cheque for £203 from the ticket sales and donations by employees at a charity disco. A separate donation for £100 was also received from the company. Special thanks to Glynis Holt and Donna Berry for their help.
