GIANT Easter eggs hatched into giant funds for the Blood Bikers, thanks to the efforts of Woolmer Forest Lions Club members who held a raffle supported by businesses.
Lions treasurer Alastair Gallon presented a cheque for £2,142.27 to treasurer of the Blood Bikers Tim Bennett at the Angel Hotel, Privett.
The money was raised from this year’s Easter Egg Appeal, where 30 businesses and outlets raffled giant Easter Eggs, to support Woolmer Forest Lions and the Blood Bikers. Almost £3,000 was raised, and after the cost of the eggs was deducted, the whole amount was donated to the Blood Bikers.
Alistair said the Lions were delighted to help such a worthy cause. The Blood Bikers help save lives, 365 days a year and Alistair thanked all the outlets that took part in the raffle, and the public for their generosity.
