A local Charity and MP Graham Stuart have been out to see the latest defibrillators to be installed in the area thanks to their joint efforts.
N.U.R.S.E. who helps fund the project joined the MP as they visited locations in Beverley, Cherry Burton and Lund who have all recently installed defibrillators.
The Cherry Burton Sportsfield Committee has been given a semi-automatic defibrillator by Beverley based charity Needed Urgent Remedial Surgical Equipment (N.U.R.S.E).
N.U.R.S.E is a local registered charity and consists of four committee members who raise money to fund much-needed medical equipment for local hospitals and the surrounding community.
N.U.R.S.E. Charity say the event festive event they organised was a massive success raising just hundreds of pounds.
The Beckside Christmas Cracker was community event that saw local school children and businesses come together and not only have fun but raise cash for a worth while cause.
MP Graham Stuart celebrated the installation of two new defibrillators in Beverley by making personal visits to Minstergate Surgery and Woodmansey Primary School.
The Christmas Festival of Food and Drink being held inside Beverley Minster this Saturday 26th November will bring together the very best in local food businesses and community groups.
With more than 70 stalls offering the finest local produce, charity stalls, entertainment, festive cookery demos and presentations, the event’s theme is very much ‘keep it local’.
Vera Robinson and Jane Tattam form the charity N.U.R.S.E. who organised the Beverley Raft Race say the event was a massive success both in and out of the water.
N.U.R.S.E. Charity will be among the first charities in the country to use its own, unique personalised text code, NCUK14 to raise funds using JustTextGiving by Vodafone.
Jane Tattan the Chairman of local charity N.U.R.S.E. says she is delighted with the news that the new Mayor of Beverley Paul McGrath has named N.U.R.S.E. as one of his chosen charities for the year.
