Princes Risborough Young Farmers are delighted to announce that they raised over £25,000 for two amazing charity’s through their successful tractor run and Christmas tree collection. The events, which took place over the festive season, brought together current and ex members, showcasing both teamwork, generosity, and a community spirit.
The tractor run saw participants drive through Thame, Chinnor, Risborough, and Haddenham, with a convoy of 300 brightly decorated tractors and lorry’s. Hundreds of supporters along the route not only made it a fun day for participants and spectators but also served as a reminder of the vital role agriculture plays in the local community.
The Young Farmers would like to thank their sponsors Kingshill Estate Agents, K & A and Zurn and all the local businesses who supported them.
Alongside the tractor run, the Young Farmers organised a Christmas tree collection service, offering residents around the local area a convenient way to dispose of their trees after the festive season while contributing to a worthy cause. All 726 trees were successfully collected and chipped in one day despite the rain and wind. The club would once again like to thank Help Hirings for their sponsorship of the chipper!
The funds raised will go to the PACE centre in Aylesbury and to Rennie Grove Hospice, two incredible charities that mean a lot to the club.
Princes Risborough Young Farmers Club would like to thank everyone who participated and donated. The Club Committee would also like to thank all current and ex members who gave up their time to help organise the two events.
