Today, on the 31st October, we are remembering Ellie Cook on her 18th birthday. Her family have chosen to Pay For a Day in her memory.
This Pay For a Day has been paid for with proceeds from the 2020 Claire House Club Challenge, a fishing contest set up by Ellie’s dad Colin.
Last year over £12,000 was raised, taking the total to over £85,000.
This year, on Sunday the 7th of November, it’s the 10th anniversary of the contest. 104 anglers will be taking part, hoping to hit the £100,000 mark with their fundraising, all in memory of Ellie.
“There is a sparkling trophy up for grabs at the Claire House Club Challenge. And it’s all for a girl who loved her witches, ghouls and pumpkins as much as she loved all things pink, fluffy and full of glitter” said Ellie’s mum Linda.
Colin and Linda would like to thank every single person who has supported the Challenge and helped to make it such a success since it began in 2012.
