Captains Charity Wiltshire Sight
James Thompson aged 5, thought it would be fun to have a lemonade stand and sell his lemonade (like he had seen on a kids’ TV programme).
James and his Dad made their own lemonade a few weeks earlier, and James really enjoyed the process.
Between Mum, Dad, and James, they came up with the idea of using the idea to raise money for the Devizes Bowls Club Captains Charity (Wiltshire Sight) .
The Mixed Pairs Competition Event was the perfect opportunity to do this. James and his mum spent Saturday afternoon making lemonade to sell on Sunday.
With the sun shining, they raised £21 that has gone to Wiltshire Sight.
Well done James !
