You may remember more than 50 tractors lit up the Kington streets – and our hearts – before Christmas during a tractor run through the Herefordshire town.

Well, that eye-catching event which brought the town and surrounding villages onto the streets has raised over £3,000 for St Michael’s!

Taking place in memory of John Synnock, the fundraiser was organised by his daughters, Laura and Georgina.

John spent eight weeks being cared for by St Michael’s. He died in 2017.

A huge than you to Laura and Georgina (pictured below bringing some of the cash in to St Michael’s) for organising this very special event, and to everyone who drove a tractor or cheered them on!
