    Upwood & The Raveleys Newsletter JUNE 2020 Issue 108 LOCAL LASS RAISES OVER £1000 FOR HER SPARKS CLUB Lily, who lives in Upwood, was inspired by Captain Tom to do her own fund-raising during the month of May. Lily, who is a member of the Sparks Club in Ramsey, decided to walk a marathon by completing a mile every day for 26 days. She could be seen meeting her own personal challenge pounding the streets of Upwood accompanied by her mum, Helen, and her trusty collection bucket. Lily raised over £1000 from on-line and street donations for her Sparks club. Well done Lily!

At the same time as receiving this issue (No.108) you should also receive a copy of the April issue (No.107) which was printed prior to the lockdown but not delivered. Hopefully you will find information in both copies which is still of interest to you. It is reassuring to see how supportive our community has been during the pandemic. Not only has an effective Covidhelp group been set up in record time but many parishioners have also been involved in supporting friends and neighbours through informal arrangements for helping with shopping, collecting medication, dog walking and many other requests.

In so doing the Panel has been advised that the Chief Executive has been reappointed Regional Returning Officer (designate) for the Eastern Region and in recognising the heavy personal commitment and responsibility which this involves it has been necessary to review the situation locally.
