Children to set up shop in street to raise money for Saint Michael's
A group of community-minded children will set up shop in the streets of Harrogate tomorrow to raise money for Saint Michael's Hospice.
The children will sell cakes they've baked along with bric-a-brac for what has become an annual event on Valley Mount.
It was started in 2015 by sisters Yasmin and Louisa Stokes when they were aged five and three respectively. Last year's event generated £647.
In 2019 the group was invited to visit Saint Michael’s headquarters at Hornbeam Park to see where their funds had gone.
Yasmin and Louisa will be joined at this year's sale by friends Ben and Chloe Annett and Annalise Plummer-Rooke.
It will take place from about 9am on Valley Mount until the cake sells out.
