Well, here we are, almost at the end of the year, goodness how time flies!
"The Friends of Ramsey" group were only formed in February and at the time of writing this, we have given 14 donations to local worthy causes. None of these would have been possible without so much help and support from so many kind and generous people. A big thank you to all of you who donated tombola prizes, lucky dips and also the bric-a-brac, which we sell via Home and Vintage in Bury, Ramsey. You all know who you are and we are very grateful to you.
We will be continuing our fund-raising this year so donβt forget that we are here to help if we can, please get in touch.
Our latest donation was for the new youth space at St. Thomas a Becket Church, which is open every Wednesday in term time after school for secondary children. On Remembrance Sunday the friends laid a wreath at the war Memorial in Memory and Gratitude to all the men and women who served our country that we might enjoy the freedoms that we have today.
Now for my personal thank you to "The Friends of Ramsey" Margaret Margetts, Gillian Knox, Bill Barcas, Cathy Cracknell, Mary and Bugsy Ison, and my dear husband Dave, for all their hard work and dedication to helping others.
We hope that you all had a great Christmas and a really happy 2026.
