Alfie’s Disco Fund Raiser

This week we went to Ilminister to receive a cheque from an inspiring young man called Alfie. Alfie has diabetes and has received support from the Josh Evans Trust Fund, but wanted to help others and give something back.

Alfie had an idea to put on a disco in his Garden, he asked a friend if he could borrow his disco equipment and invited all his friends to join him.  They had a great time and raised some money.

But it didn’t end there, Alfie wanted to help more people and decided a bigger disco was needed, he stood up in his school assembly and told everyone why he raised money for The Josh Evans Trust Fund and how he was going to raise some more money by having another disco.

This second disco was a great success and lots more fun. In total Alfie, his friends and the school have raised £350 for the Josh Evans Trust Fund.

We are constantly amazed at the lengths young people will go to to help others. Keep up the great work Alfie, we will make sure the money you have raised will help other children and their families with diabetes in Somerset. 

Thank you so much.
