A COMPANY is celebrating its 80th anniversary by raising money for Manorlands.

Guyson International Ltd is planning a series of events in aid of the Oxenhope Sue Ryder hospice.

Fundraising was kicked off with sales of T-shirts, plus a raffle, which together raised £797.

Managing director, Mark Viner, said: "We have some more fundraising ideas to continue our celebratory year, including a barbecue in the summer and a sponsored cycle."

When put to the vote, staff at the Skipton firm had opted overwhelmingly to support Manorlands.

Molly Ralphson, community fundraiser at Manorlands, said the hospice carried out a lot of work in the Skipton area.

She added: "As well as the key care for those that are in the hospice, Manorlands also works closely with a number of specialist teams in the Skipton area and we are delighted that Guyson International Ltd has recognised this and decided to support us in 2018."
