Jumpers Bungee For Charity In Cockermouth 2009: Friday 14

Jumpers bungee for charity in Cockermouth

Friday, 14 August 2009 A BUNGEE jump event in Cockermouth on Sunday raised more than £1,000 for the Copeland Occupational & Social Centre.
The Fletcher Christian Tavern, on Main Street, raised the money for the charity which supports adults with disabilities, when 30 people took turns to jump in South Street car park. Landlord John Reid said: “It was a fantastic day and I was pleased with the turnout for the event. “I think before the day we were expecting 40 jumpers but we are still pleased with the amount that took part. “We have already collected £1,000 and hope to raise around £1,500 once we have collected all the money because there is still a lot to come in. “This charity doesn’t always receive the attention it deserves although it supports so many local people and their families.”
Covers band Brightside and MB’s disco played after the event.
