Sponsored Charity Event – Sunday 21st June 2015
Gadsby Nichols were proud to sponsor a charity event for the Methodist Homes, Mickleover Live-at-Home Scheme, and had a stand at the Mickleover Fayre. Gadsby Nichols sponsored a charity balloon race, together with offering the first prize of a Samways bicycle.
The Mickleover event is held twice yearly, once near Christmas and this being the Summer event, where the centre of Mickleover is closed to traffic, and is an extremely busy event with many stalls. The aim of the charity balloon race is that the balloon returned from the furthest distance from Mickleover will win the main prize for the participant. The closing date for the return of the balloons is not until late July-2015, so we await the results with a keen interest to see how far the furthest balloon travels.
