Story

Along with my mum, Gail we are fundraising for the Rucksacks4Homeless project run by the Rotary Club at Sowerby Bridge in memory of my uncle and my mum's brother, Colin Rennie. 

Sowerby Bridge established the Rucksacks4Homeless scheme in 2017, they put together rucksacks for genuine homeless people, full of essential items which can help them get back on their feet.

Each rucksack costs around £85 and we are hoping to raise enough to help at least two in need but we would love to be able to go beyond this. 

Over the next few months we will be fundraising by selling handmade products made by Liz and Gail and much more.
