Classic Minis Galore at Little Harbour
On Saturday 13 July, the Cornish Mini Club visited Children’s Hospice South West’s (CHSW) Little Harbour hospice.
They presented a cheque of £1,400, which is their largest donation to the charity to date.
Cornish Mini Club members vote to nominate charities to support each year, and this year they chose CHSW alongside Cornwall Blood Bikes.
The club raised the funds at the Riviera Run at Pentewan Sands Holiday Park on the early May Bank Holiday weekend by holding events such as a raffle, stereo and exhaust sound off competitions, an evening quiz, Show and Shine competitions and a glow show competition over the Riviera Run weekend event.
Since 2016 their club has raised £10,422.66 for various local charities, with £5,307.19 being raised over the years for CHSW.
The troupe turned up at the hospice in their beautiful, classic minis, and were joined by care team and family members in the sunshine who thanked the club for their dedication to raising funds for the special cause.
Bethany Rudge, Area Fundraiser for CHSW, said:
It was wonderful to see such beautiful cars at the hospice. The group have done such an incredible job with their fundraising, and every pound they have raised will make such a difference to the lives of those supported by the charity.
