KNARESBOROUGH MUMMERS
Charities
We try and support local
charities from the money we collect on our Blue Stots tours. That is not to say we do not support overseas
charities – we have done in the past but, as reported in the international
press, sometimes large sums of money intended for the victims of natural
disasters, etc., have gone “missing” which is why we prefer to use the money
where we can see that it reaches the right people. We have however sponsored individuals to work
abroad for worthy causes.
Some of the charities we have
made donations to over the years are listed below:-
Follifoot Park Disabled Riders Group
Project Trust scheme – Helen
Burrell taught English French and Art at Kankobe Orphanage in
Children in Need
The
Tsunami Relief Work -
The English Folk Dance and
Song Society

Service
League of Friends of St. Monica's Hospital
