This will restore your faith in human nature...Kiters bidding on a kite in an auction organised to raise money for the Air Ambulance and Breast Cancer Awareness charities have raised a grand total of £778.17. Kiters who could not afford to bid for the kite chipped in with donations to achieve this fantastic total.

Well done guys!
