Now this takes the biscuit!

Ella Spencer, aged 9, saw the photo of ‘Auntie Margaret’ in the Clitheroe Advertiser and decided she would like to sponsor the walk, and instead of simply asking her mum and dad for some money, rolled up her sleeves and baked some cakes (and flapjacks, and ice buns, and a tea loaf...) She got her 6-year old brother Luke to do some baking too, then persuaded her dad Barry to help produce some fliers and posted them around her neighbourhood. On Saturday she held her fund-raising cake stall at the end of her drive and raised a staggering £146 which will go to the Rosemere Cancer Foundation. Ella and Luke, you’re a couple of stars - thank you so much and congratulations on your hard work and ingenuity! Thanks to mum Tracey and dad Barry for helping out too. P.S. Some flapjack was sent special delivery and I tried it in the Langdales on Sunday – it was delicious!


Ella, Luke and a satisfied customer
