Lord Hire Centres raised a fantastic £1,375 for Meadow Well Connected

Held at South Gosforth Club on Friday 25th January 2019, Lord enlisted the help of local bands The Rockafellas and The Dust Raisers (both of whom donated their time for free) to put on an evening of entertainment. With support from local and national businesses kindly donating items for a raffle and auction, along with ticket sales, the event was hugely successful in raising funds for the worthy charity.

Carl Bartlett, Lord Hire Centres General Manager had this to say about the event:

"On behalf of Lord Hire Centres and Meadow Well Connected, I would like to extend a huge thank you to all those who both attended and gave generously in support of our fundraising event on Friday evening. The event was a great success with a good time had by all, as well as raising a fantastic £1,375.00 for such a great charity and facility."
