Being a volunteer representative for CLIC Sargent means I get to be involved in lots of fun, fundraising events throughout the year. I have already been involved with many events this year, Wig Wednesday promotion, bucket collections and organising fundraising events for this year.
Bright and early last Sunday morning, me and my wing man Pete done a car boot sale to raise money for CLIC Sargent and it went splendidly well. We didn't think we would sell half of the stuff we had for sale. We had 2 cars full up with books, clothes, children's toys and random things.
Family and friends donated everything to us and we managed to raise an amazing amount for the charity.

Thank you so much to everyone who has helped by donating stuff to us.
To put things into perspective, £124 could go towards a £170 grant that is offered to children and young people with cancer, and their families as soon as they come into contact with CLIC Sargent to help meet the sudden extra costs that a cancer diagnosis can bring.
It went so well that we are thinking of doing one more regularly which will hopefully raise a lot of awareness as well as money for a great charity.

Have you ever done a car boot sale? How did you find it?
