RRT supports Zoё’s Place annual charity fundraiser
The RRT team was very happy to be a part of Zoë’s Place Baby Hospice’s annual Summer Fayre in Coventry on the 29th of June. The sun was shining for the fundraising event which this year raised over £6000 for palliative, respite and end of life care for babies and infants suffering from life-limiting or life-threatening conditions.
The RRT provided a full catering service, offering the Premium Beef Burger and Sausage Meal menu to the 700 plus fayre goers. The proceeds from every meal sold went to Zoё’s Place,
World Record Attempt
The day also saw a new Guinness World Record set for the most people hugging teddies simultaneously for 10 seconds! Participants beat the previous record of 300 by reaching 354 teddy huggers. Well done record breakers!
