๐ Dragon Boat Team Spotlight ๐ Meet the Green Dragons from HW Martin Waist Ltd โป
Long-time supporters of Bluebell Wood, HW Martin has already raised more than ยฃ6,000 for the hospice through fundraising, volunteering, Christmas tree collections and sponsored challenges over the years. They've even helped champion the Dragon Boat Race in the local community and we're so incredibly grateful for it all ๐ฅฐ
While the team might be diving in for their first-ever Bluebell Wood Dragon Boat Race, you bet they're ready to make waste of the competition ๐ With a crew made up of Directors, Senior Managers and Operational staff from across Leeds, Rotherham and Derbyshire, while some team members have dragon boat experience, for many it will be their maiden voyage โ so a few nerves are floating alongside the excitement!
Their Social Value Manager, Stacey, has a message for spectators ๐
"Please come along, any support for inexperienced teams like ours will boost our morale. It's going to be a great family fun day โ we can't wait! And at the end of the day the aim is to raise vital funds for the hospice, fun and fundraising โ perfect combo!"
A huge thank you to everyone at HW Martin Waste Ltd for throwing themselves in at the deep end and helping make a difference for local families ๐
Join us on the day and help us cheer all our teams on!
