The annual Tractor Road Run was well supported with over 80 tractors taking part; to-date sponsor money is still coming in with over £5,000 raised so far for the East Anglian Air Ambulance and the Newborough Young Farmers…who gave their time and help with advertising and sponsorship.

The event was filmed and is being put onto a DVD and will be available for sale; which will also contribute to funds. Thank you to all who contributed in any way either by helping or sponsorship; again without their input the event would not be possible.
