A MOTHER and daughter team raised £2,000 for two organisations during a sponsored ‘Zumbathon’ last month.

In late July, mother and daughter Tracy and Beth Horton organised the Zumbathon to raise money for Sepsis UK and Tavistock Lions Club. Around 70 people enjoyed the two hour session at The Wharf raising £2,000 in the process, half of which will be donated to Sepsis UK in memory of Tracy’s father who died from the condition and the other half being given to Tavistock Lions for the conversion of the carnival princess carriage into a sleigh for Santa and to buy presents for children, which the club plans to distribute around primary schools just before Christmas.

Club president Jan Meakin thanked Tracy and Beth for organising such a successful event and for the generous donation to the club.
