  5. Marie Curie’s Wensleydale Fundraising Group has made a lot of money over the years. The generosity of the organisers has been amazing. Thank you for all the effort made to keep this event going. The hours of volunteer time have added a huge amount to the local economy, but it’s understandable why this decision has had to be made.
    Thank you for some very happy weekends.
