- Following the death of an 18 year old girl who was the niece of one of our Contractors, Helipebs Controls and its employees decided to become the main sponsor for a tractor drive between John O’Groats and Lands’ End which raised £2,000 for the Cardiomyopathy Association.

In 2012, the programme was compered by Nicholas Parsons, star of radio, theatre and TV fame, and the audience were able to listen to Laurence Kilsby, a Tewkesbury Abbey chorister, who sang for the Queen during her Diamond Jubilee celebrations. A total of £7,900 was raised for distribution to local causes, including LINC and RP Fighting Blindness. For further information please go to www.lincfund.org and www.rpfightingblindness.org.uk
