East Ribble Charity Stewards’ Fund presented a cheque to help a student on a field trip to Dominica.
The cheque was presented to Caitlin Fawcett an A level student, whose grandfather is Ken Fawcett, an Accrington mason in The Lodge of Remembrance. He had requested a grant to assist Caitlin in paying towards a college field trip to Dominica for which she had to raise £2,800. Bro Fawcett put the request forward to Bro Jopson who presented it to the Charity Stewards meeting. Again, the proposition was passed unanimously and £50 was given to assist her field trip.
Caitlin thanked us for the cheque and promised the Charity Stewards, on her return in July, to provide a report of the trip.
