The Laura Crane Trust


Members of Thirsk Young Farmers presented a Cheque for £300 to The Laura Crane Trust. The Money was raised at last years Big Bath II and was presented to Mr Harry Woodheads chosen charity, The Laura Crane Trust. The Laura Crane Trust is a charity which raises funds for reasearch to be carried out into cancer in children and young adults. The aim of the research is to improve treatment and save young lives. As you will agree the charity is very fitting to our age group and a well deserving charity. A huge thank you to all members who work hard to raise the money.

Ready Steady Cook!


Members this week experimented at our very own version of Ready Steady Cook! Six teams competed to create a meal in 20 minutes with a goody bag of ingredients. I think i can quite safely say we haven't found the next Ainsley Harriet or Jamie Oliver! On a positive note we have had no reports of food poisoning from the judges yet! A huge thank you to Johnathan, Marion, Carol and Claire for judging the teams efforts. Well done to the winning team, The Kinky Tomatoes (Alex M, Dave S, Kirsten B, Helen S and Martin C) who made a beef stir fry and noodles.

Everyone is welcome to join us on Monday Night for the cheque presentation to The Laura Crane Trust meet at the Auction Mart at 7.30pm
