“We would love for people to come and join us, for a joyful festive treat for the family and show their appreciation by donating to a truly essential rural service.

“There will be an army of volunteers marshalling and collecting, with QR codes for those who don’t carry cash, so please show your appreciation for their commitment in making sure everyone has a safe enjoyable event, which hopefully raises lots of money for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance.
