an out of hours shop for their latest fashion item.

Vivienne Westwood handbag, a total of £1,550 was raised. This total has been matchedby the Farleys Foundation making a grand total of £3,100
The money raised will go towards helping Rosemere in the
fantastic work they do supporting world class cancer treatment throughout
Lancashire and South Cumbria.
