Cavaliers Give away £50,000 bonfire proceeds

Saturday 5th December - Plough Arts Centre Torrington - 10am

After all the years of hardwork leading upto and including the burn it is one of our favourite events when we give away the £50,000 raised by our spectacular Trumpton Bonfire. It was a full house and we started by showing the special Trumpton episode featuring the Cavaliers and a brief history of the bonfires on the cinema screen. 50% of the monies raised went to our 2 nominated charities; The Plough Arts Centre and the Macmillan Nurses who both received £12,500.
