The two nominated causes have each been presented with cheques for £5oo raised through Crosspool Festival.

Independent charity PACT (Parents’ Association of Children with Tumours and Leukaemia) received £500. PACT is linked to Sheffield Children’s Hospital and supports families by providing accommodation near the hospital, holiday caravans in Filey and Berwick upon Tweed and organising trips and treats for children.

A further £500 donated to Coldwell Lane community facility CDYST will go towards playground improvements.
