The Ashburton Lodge of Mark Master Masons 1038 came to the rescue to support a local charity.
Walter C Parsons Funeral Directors (Newton Abbot Branch) Organised and ran a coffee morning on Saturday 29th July to raise funds for Jay’s Aim their chosen charity.
Jay’s Aim is a registered charity, which has three distinct aims;
Screening - Funding and encouraging young people to attend cardiac screening sessions and supporting Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY)
Training - Offering free-to-attend training sessions for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and automated electronic defibrillator (AED)
Defibrillators - Providing public access defibrillators (PAD) for places in need including sports clubs, schools and community hubs.
The coffee morning and the donations made, raised a considerable sum but were just short of their intending target, so the Ashburton Lodge of Mark Master Masons No 1038 immediately came to the rescue and made a presentation to the funds of £100
The monies raised will enable Jay’s Aim to fulfil their objectives by providing a Defibrillator to be located on the WCP building in Newton Abbot.
As a side issue Leslie is undertaking a parachute jump to further boost the funds for Jay’s Aim some time in Mid August
