Charity’s thanks for race night success

Thousands of pounds have been raised for Safe and Sound from a charity race night held at Great Northern Classics.

The event, which attracted more than 100 people, raised £5,500 for the charity, which is dedicated to transforming the lives of children and young people affected by child exploitation.

Tracy Harrison, chief executive at Safe and Sound, said: “This significant amount will directly enhance our ability to protect and support children and young people in Derbyshire who are at risk or have been affected by exploitation.

“My sincerest thanks go out to everyone who took the time to come and support this vitally important cause.

“I also want to extend immense gratitude to all our incredible volunteers for their invaluable support on the night, and to my wonderful team of staff.

Tracy also extended her heartfelt thanks to all the sponsors who made the race night possible.

She said: “Your generosity is instrumental in our fight against child exploitation. A very special mention goes to Pete Ellse at Cosy Direct for his incredible support – your contribution truly made a difference to the success of the event.”
