Findon friends’ lemonade stand raises hundreds for Worthing Hospital

Mabel Gilmour and Martha Diaper sold drinks and snacks on Bank Holiday Monday, May 25, from the driveway at Mabel’s house and managed to raise £617.

Nancy Gilmour, Mabel’s mum, said: “We had amazing support and donations - a big shout out to Chris and Sam Sherman, donating £100, and Pam and Derek Falkingham for their generous donation. The girls are super proud.

“All followed the social distancing rules on the day, everything was individually wrapped, and the response was amazing.

“They would like to say thank you for all the amazing donations, homemade cakes and the time people gave to come and support them.”
