Burnham-On-Sea couple hand over ruby wedding anniversary cheque

Generous Burnham-On-Sea couple Terry and Yvonne Cornelius have handed a £435 cheque to Burnham's Community Medical Equipment Fund after raising the money at their ruby wedding anniversary celebration.

The couple celebrated their 40th anniversary with a slap-up dinner and dance in Winscombe for all their friends from the local Moose International lodge.

In lieu of wedding presents, they requested donations and were delighted to hand over £435 to Tom Ashton, the chairman of the Burnham Medical Equipment Fund (as pictured here).

The fund is a registered charity that provides much-needed equipment for Burnham and Highbridge residents.

Moose International is a fraternal organisation based on family values where members have fun and support each other whilst raising money for good causes and charities. The Burnham-On-Sea lodge meets on the last Thursday of each calendar month at Berrow village hall.
