Lara's fundraiser for Safeline
Fundraising for Safeline
Story
I’m a councillor, get me out of here!
On 23rd March 2024 Lara and her fellow councillors will be locked inside Warwick Castle Dungeon (Fungeon?) for 12 hours overnight to raise money and awareness for Safeline charity. Please support us and pray that they let us out again and we don’t end up as breakfast for the children of the spider queen.
For Safeline's 30th anniversary we are doing something big!
Councillor Becky Noonan will be taking on 30 challenges in 30 weeks, partnering up with different local businesses / residents for each challenge.
If you would like to sponsor a specific challenge or buddy up and join Becky on one, just drop us a note! Below is a list of the challenges (some may change) and more will be added. Please feel free to suggest ideas.
