Ford boost for Barely Born fund

Premier Ford MD David Rye hands over a cheque for £669.50 to Lisa Corney from the Barely Born Appeal. The money was raised by staff, through a Christmas raffle.

A RAFFLE held as part of the annual Christmas festivities at Premier Ford has raised £669 for the Barely Born Appeal at St Mary’s Hospital.

Employees bought tickets for the raffle and the draw took place at the recent Premier Ford staff party.

Winners walked away with a variety of prizes donated by Premier Ford, which included a 32ins LCD high-definition television, a digital camera, digital camcorder and other prizes.

David Rye, Premier Ford’s managing director, said: "This is the third time we have held the raffle, as a motivator for our staff and to benefit local charities. The £669 raised takes the total over the last two years to more than £2,000."
