Berrow’s Day Lewis Pharmacy raises funds for Burnham’s BARB Search & Rescue

-

Staff at a Berrow pharmacy have presented a fundraising boost to a Burnham-On-Sea life-saving charity.

The team at Day Lewis Pharmacy, located at Berrow Medical Centre, run a book club for their customers and give the proceeds go to charity.

They have presented the proceeds, totalling £175, to Burnham-based rescue hovercraft charity BARB Search & Rescue.

A BARB spokesman said: “We are very grateful to the Day Lewis staff and customers for their very kind support of BARB. We are a small independent charity that relies fully on donations from our local community to keep running so every penny is greatly appreciated and makes a real difference in keeping our rescue service running.”

BARB was called out 56 times during 2019 and its team of volunteers gave 7,000 hours of their time to the charity.
