This year’s Wakefield Pride, held at The New Union, was a huge success and initially raised just under £1700 for Yorkshire MESMAC- which The New Union rounded up to £1700. And, a short while after the event, one of their regular customer (who wishes to remain anonomous) very generously donated an extra £300 to round the figure up to £2000. The New Union together with Jeff Platts and Sally Kitson from Yorkshire MESMAC would like to personally thank everyone who contributed for their great generosity. ‘This money will make a real contribution towards the health and wellbeing of the lgbt community in Wakefield,’ said Platts. ‘The funds will be used to support the Wellfit Exercise Project which provides free exercise for people of all ages, and The Fruitbowl youth project which supports lgbt youth in the Wakefield District.’
A special thanks goes to David Baxter who is the authorised distributor for Utility Warehouse Discount Club in Wakefield. He organised a raffle which raised £500 which he kindly donated to the overall Pride funds. (Pictured left to right: John, Sol, Jeff, David and MarkyMark)
