Ely Swishing are Fundraising Again!

Ely Swishing are fundraising again and this time it’s personal...

Ely Swishing group have been active for nearly thirteen years. Ruth has been running the group with a team of fabulous helpers for most of that time. ‘Team Swish’ have raised several thousand pounds and helped re-use at least a tonne of clothing.

Swishing is a great way to reduce ‘fast fashion’, swapping those ‘Sale Fails’ or items you just don’t love anymore for lovely ‘New to you’ things.

After fundraising for so many other causes, Ruth has decided to help a cause close to her own heart this time and raise funds for The Royal Papworth Hospital. 

In February, her husband suddenly had a heart attack at home. He was taken to The Royal Papworth Hospital, where he went straight to a ‘Cath Lab’, and underwent lifesaving treatment. He was home within a few days and is doing well with his rehabilitation.

The next event will be at FRESH. on Saturday 27th April. Tickets are available on Eventbrite.
