Former Club President Martin Robinson raised £1,100 for Macmillan Cancer Support by having his head shaved as part of a district initiative, held at The Brackenborough Arms near Louth, to support the Brave the Shave initiative run by Macmillan.

The club’s annual fundraising has been the best ever during the year.
