EDITORS COMMENTS
This heartwarming photo captures the spirit of two young girls from Hall Bower who made the most of their school holidays by giving back to their community. Ten-year-old Joanne Woodcock and seven-year-old Kathryn Rose, both Sunday school attendees at Hall Bower, embarked on a remarkable fundraising journey. Determined to make a difference, they ran an impressive 10 sponsored laps around the village cricket field. Their efforts paid off as they managed to raise over £23 for Cancer Research, an incredible achievement for such young philanthropists. The charity was deeply moved by their selfless act and expressed their gratitude through a heartfelt letter addressed to the girls. Taken on September 1st, 1986, this photograph not only showcases the innocence and enthusiasm of these children but also serves as a reminder that even small actions can have a significant impact. In an era defined by its sense of community and compassion, it is heartening to witness these young souls dedicating themselves to helping others in need. This snapshot from our 'All Our Yesterdays' collection takes us back to Huddersfield in West Yorkshire during the vibrant 1980s. It reminds us that charity knows no age limits and inspires us all to find ways we can contribute positively towards society.
