Morgan magic for feast of farm fun

Jul 10 2006 By Emma Cullwick, Birmingham Mail

CLASSIC car enthusiasts are being urged to bring their prized motors to Worcestershire and help pay for a new hospice.

Malvern car manufacturer Morgan is donating a vehicle for a show at Inkberrow, near Droitwich - and owners are being called upon to display their own vintage motors as well.

The fund-raiser, to take place at Broadclose Farm on Sunday, July 23, from 12.30pm, is in aid of St Richard's Hospice, Worcester.

Based in Rose Hill, it provides support for people with life-threatening illnesses such as cancer and has 70 staff and 600 volunteers.

The hospice is building a new multi-million-pound centre in Spetchley and aims to have it open by the autumn. It needs to generate a further £2.8 million every year.

Organiser Sonia Woolven said: "This will be a lovely summer event with a gorgeous lunch and music and afterwards the chance to enjoy the collection of cars."

Anyone who would like to bring a car can contact Barrie Humphries on 01905 345773. Tickets cost £30, including lunch, and are available on 01905 763963.
