Dear All in Greenmount Village Community ,

For those of you not familiar with Margaret Haes Riding Centre (MHRC) for over 40 years this independent charitable organisation based in Holcombe and run by volunteers has helped hundreds of people with special needs, young and old, enjoy the experience of riding with all the benefits that provides in the West Pennine Moors in the Holcombe area.
The reason for the Raffle…
As well as struggling to survive a pandemic resulting in reduced income streams the charity wants provide some basics, specifically to install hot water for their volunteers, riders and staff in the brew room and toilets.
This involves an expensive electrical upgrade and plumbing. We have people kindly donating their skills but still need to buy materials. Please help to improve the safety for our riders, volunteers and staff. There is no hot water on site at the moment (except by boiling a kettle) !
