Charollais Tup Raises £680 for Addington
Sep 30, 2010 - 02:41 PM
We are extremely grateful to John Maxwell for donating the sale of one of his Charollais flock to raise funds for Addington.
The tup, which went up for auction at Ashford Market last Friday sold for a fantastic £680. The money raised will be used to help Kent’s farming families experiencing financial difficulty and also helping those needing to exit or retire from the industry.
We would also like to thank Mark Cleverdon from Hobbs Parker for his help in promoting Mr Maxwell’s animal and for waiving the commission fee.
The Fund are continually looking for unique ways to promote the charity and raise funds, and if you have any ideas which you would like to share with us, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
