Many Hands Campaign Event
Last night I went along last night to the Many Hands Campaign Event held at Manchester Town Hall. ‘Many Hands’ raises money for the new Manchester Children’s Hospital based just south of the City Centre. The campaign’s aim is to raise £20m by September and so far is £1.8m short of this target - a magnificent achievement. The money has been raised through innovative ideas and there were four finalists presenting last night in front of a panel of judges which include Theo Paphitis from Dragons Den. The winners were, I am delighted to say, two residents from not only Bury South but also my Ward. So well done to Nigel Woolfstein and Sheldon Bean who organised a 24 hour tennis marathon to raise the much needed funds for this mangificent cause. Everyone who has raised money for this event needs to be equally congratulated and I look forward to having the opportunity in the not too distant future to taking a tour of the new hospital.
