AIRE Valley Young Farmers Club has presented £1,000 to Manorlands.

The money was part of the proceeds of a race night held by the club at The Raggalds, in Queensbury.

Yorkshire Air Ambulance was also amongst the beneficiaries of the sell-out event, which included a raffle and auction.

Club secretary Fiona Jowett said: "We were delighted to raise this money for such good causes and would like to thank all those who attended and gave their support."

Young Farmers have visited the Oxenhope Sue Ryder hospice to hand over a cheque to Andrew Wood, Manorlands community fundraising manager.

He said: "This was a brilliant event enjoyed by the local rural community and was a credit to those involved.

"It was very kind of the Aire Valley Young Farmers Club members to select Sue Ryder Manorlands hospice and Yorkshire Air Ambulance to benefit from the event's success.

"The money raised will help us to continue to be there when it matters for people going through the most difficult times of their lives."

Aire Valley Young Farmers Club has members aged from ten to 28, and holds meetings every Monday at 7.30pm.
