Special beer to fund beams

Date published: 08 September 2016


THE Christie Allsorts are staging an evening of entertainment, auctions and fundraising at the Roaches Lock in Mossley.

The group ­- seven friends predominantly from Saddleworth and Mossley who are passionate about fundraising for The Christie ­- get to work on Saturday, September 17.

Difference

This year's project is to raise money for The Christie's new Proton Beam Therapy Suite which will make a massive difference to patients who currently have to travel overseas (predominantly Switzerland and America) for treatment.

Thwaites Brewery has created a special beer clip "BEAM" ­- and over the full weekend of September 16-18, 50p per pint will be donated back to the fundraising cause.

Among the live entertainment, from 7pm, are local duo Backstage Pass, while raffle prizes include a Smart TV, Chrome laptop and a mountain bike.

Auction prizes include a signed Manchester United ball, signed Sergio Aguero shirt from Manchester City, framed and signed Paul Scholes shirt and a limousine trip to Blackpool illuminations.
