SIR, May I through the courtesy of your pages express grateful thanks to everyone who supported the Charity Zumbathon in aid of Innerleithen & Walkerburn Community First Responders, on September 27.

We raised a wonderful total of £389.63 which will go towards the purchase of vital training equipment.

Particular thanks to Fit Borders Zumba Instructors, Sainsbury’s Peebles for providing fruit and water, everyone who donated baking & raffle prizes, June at the Post Office for selling tickets, and everyone who participated.

I am, etc.

Jackie Brown IWCFR Chairperson
