This week we chat to BIG hearted Redditch schoolgirl who is on the cusp of raising £2,500 for Guide Dogs – and she’s hoping one last push will help her smash that target by throwing a party on November 23rd at Redditch Golf Club.
Lauren Carrington, aged 11, embarked on her fundraising mission fully 18 months ago after being inspired by a school project to ‘do something for the community’. Since then she’s organised coffee mornings, climbed Snowdon, made loom bands and stashed away her pocket money for the cause.
And it’s something close to the Walkwood Middle School pupil’s heart, as her proud mum Gemma is registered blind and relies on her precious guide dog Jeanette to help her.
To attend the fundraising party at the 19th Hole at Redditch Golf Club in Lower Grinsty Lane, Oakenshaw on Saturday, November 23rd just email party@ingleton.com
Tickets are £10 for adults and £7.50 for under 12s and every penny raised will go to Guide Dogs.
Meet this wonderful family as Claire Bullivant chats to them in this week's podcast.
We also bring you the best things to see and do in town over the next few days. Happy listening!
