OPINION: Harrogate hospital charity’s first event is just the start - Sammy Lambert

Hello, I hope you are all enjoying your summer. The Harrogate Hospital and Community Charity (HHCC) and volunteer team and I are so excited to be holding our first event following the easing of restrictions due to the pandemic.

Our Summer BBQ will be an awesome, low key event for you, your friends and family to be able to come together and celebrate while supporting your local NHS teams.

FLASH SALE: due to the fantastic support we have received for this event, tickets are now available for a donation of £5 per adult (children aged 14 and over). Children over the age of three years are £1 (under threes are free) with proceeds being reinvested in your local NHS.

To celebrate their 55th anniversary, Friends of Harrogate Hospital recently launched a limited edition jigsaw puzzle, titled ‘Thank You NHS’.

The jigsaw is now available at the Oxford Street Post Office (AR News), next to Harrogate Theatre. Why not pop in and buy one?

The Friends will be selling their jigsaws and other merchandise at our Summer BBQ, Sunday, August 29, 2021, and also at the Starbeck Community event, August 30, 2021, with both events taking place at Harrogate Railway Athletic F.C.

I know it’s not even September yet but the team and I like to plan and make sure you have something to look forward to.
