AT least £4,522 was raised for Marie Curie Cancer Care at the JMK Memorial Tractor Run on September 21.
With generous giving by so many people, the support of landowners who allow access for the event, marshals and mechanics, and a wonderful picnic lunch provided largely by the Kirkbymoorside Marie Curie Support team, this proved to be a happy and successful event and congratulations and thanks to everyone involved.
Prizes for fancy dress were won by John Gent, Bob Sleightholme and Tim and Robert Wardle.
Over the past 10 years a total of £48,437 has been raised for cancer charities at this annual event, and the money used to help local patients and their families.
This is a splendid sum and is due to the vast amount of hard work put in by Malcolm Simpson, who organises the event with support from family and friends.
