In 1994 Ian and Carolyn celebrated their Silver Wedding and raised over £1000 by asking for donations for Care for the Family rather than presents. They did the same for their 30th wedding anniversary, their Ruby Wedding and for their Golden Wedding celebrations in 2019, raising a total of around £3,000.
Ian and Carolyn said: “So what can you say about us? We don’t like presents? Well actually we do BUT we’ve been blessed in our lives and we want to be a blessing to others. So why do we keep choosing to support Care for the Family? We think Care for the Family have a perfect blend of practical, hands-on support for families in difficulty combined with training programmes to support many aspects of family life.”
