Last month’s Mencap disco held in Boots & Laces proved to be a huge success, with almost £700 raised for the charity.
With fundraising events suspended during the last two years due to the Covid pandemic, Mencap were delighted to return to Boots & Laces in April, having enjoyed previous success at the same venue.
The ‘Rock Partway Around The Clock Challenge’ was a seven hour dance marathon, with all proceeds raised going to Local Mencap Torbay, with people from all age groups turning up to show their support and join in the dancing fun!
Torbay Mencap is a charitable organisation which works with people with learning disabilities and family carers in Torbay, and aims to promote the rights of people with a learning disability, and their carers, to ensure they have access to a wide range of quality services and opportunities.
The substantial funds raised by the event will no doubt come as a huge boost to the charity, and Torquay United AFC is delighted to continue its partnership with this worthy cause.
