The Mayor of Ross-on-Wye, Councillor Harry Bramer, along with his Consort, Marie Ward, organised a Charity Bag Pack at Sainsbury’s in Ross-on-Wye on Saturday, December 8th, where customers were asked to make donations to the Mayor’s chosen charity.

Cllr Bramer’s chosen charity is Papyrus, which seeks to prevent Young Suicides. He told the Ross Gazette that customers gave readily and were very generous with their donations.

Cllr Bramer also organised a charity raffle on the day. Local residents were able to buy tickets for a raffle for a chance to win a Christmas Hamper full of goodies and a bottle of Pink English ‘Champagne’ in aid of the charity.
