FANCY getting involved in one of the many events planned?
FUNDRAISERS have set their sights on collecting more than £10,000 for good causes in this week’s of events in South Holland.
The Two Lips campaign was kick-started on Saturday by the Rotary Club of Spalding, who have chosen a number of charities for the work they do with local residents.
The profits will be divided between Spalding’s branch of Phab, Johnson Community Hospital League of Friends, Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire Air Ambulance, and the groups using Monkshouse Scout Hut in Spalding.
A portion will also go to Rotary International to support nationally-selected causes.
Readers are being asked to give their support to the campaign, which is being backed by the Spalding Guardian and a number of businesses across the district.
