Story

In 2022 as a group of detectorists we wanted to help bring a smile to Grace Sanderson who was battling lukemia, as a group and as a business, me and the guys are grateful for the farming community, our hobby wouldn't exist if it wasn't for the support our farmers give us, So giving something back to the community felt like the right thing to do but it was something we wanted to do because we also have many members that can personally relate to what Grace and her Family went through and are still going through, unfortunately Grace lost her brave battle with lukemia which is not something we where expecting to hear and we send our love to her family and friends, Grace kindly sent us a letter thanking us for our gift we sent earlier in the year and mentioned the Trust as I made a promise to Grace was that we will raise some funds in the future, in Grace's letter she described the confidence her support and Wig named Gloria provided by the trust giver her and made her feel her in what must have been a daunting time, that is why all of our charitable efforts and fundraising will be done in the memory of Grace and donated to the little princess trust.

Thank you for taking the time to read and support such a worthy charity.
