HEREFORDSHIRE Heartstart attended the Engaging Communities event in High Town recently. Volunteers came to help raise awareness of the free two-hour Heartstart courses throughout Herefordshire. The charity boxes raised £47.20 for Heartstart. Thanks to Healthwatch Herefordshire and Primecare for organising the event and support in setting up. Thanks also to Halo Leisure for doing a charity cycle challenge to help raise funds. A special thanks to the volunteers from Crafty Ladies for bringing the beautiful craft items to sell to and doing a sweet/chocolate raffle to help raise funds. They raised £92.50 which the Crafty Ladies will add to the other fundraising for Herefordshire Heartstart and will be donated to us in a larger cheque, once they have finished all of their fundraising over the coming year.
