Julie and Mike Collett were out and about yet again last weekend continuing their sterling fundraising activities for LOROS.

Dressed up as Red Riding Hood and Mr Wolf, they made the shoppers in Sainsbury’s smile, whilst encouraging them to add their spare change to the LOROS buckets. By the end of the day, they had raised another magnificent £302 and takes their total to well over £5000.

Magdalena Korytkowska, Fundraising Co-ordinator at LOROS said:"Julie and Mike are truly dedicated fundraisers for LOROS and I admire their commitment to our Hospice. I know that they frequently dress up in a variety of costumes, to raise funds for us and to make people smile. They make me smile too - it is a pleasure to be acquainted with people who go the extra mile to raise funds for us."
