EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming photo print, we see Fundraising Marathon runner Mr Peter Meadows taking a break from his athletic endeavors to try his hand at roll-a-penny. The event takes place at a spring fair organized by the Huddersfield based Sight Saving Association, held at Paddock Village Hall. Surrounding Mr Meadows are several individuals who have come out to support the cause, including Mr John Adams of the association, Jenny Partington, Victoria Holt, Kate Partington, and Katherine Blaker. Mr Meadows, hailing from Moldgreen, played a pivotal role in raising funds for an eye laser equipment appeal at Huddersfield Royal Infirmary. His recent completion of the London Marathon in an impressive 4 hours and 14 minutes contributed significantly towards reaching their goal of £30,000. This dedicated fundraiser not only opened the event on Saturday but also actively participated in engaging activities such as roll-a-penny. The Spring fair proved to be a resounding success with its efforts resulting in raising £350. It was indeed a joyous occasion filled with laughter and excitement as community members came together to support this noble cause. This snapshot captures not only the spirit of fundraising but also highlights how collective efforts can make a significant impact on improving healthcare facilities within our local communities. This timeless photograph is part of the Huddersfield Examiner Archive's collection titled "All Our Yesterdays" which serves as a poignant reminder of past events and cherished memories that continue to inspire us today.
