Since last year we have been asked if are going to have another Great Outdoors Family Fair...

Well we are delighted to announce YES WE ARE & we would like your HELP! 

This year we want to raise even more money for charity so the fair will be bigger, better and have activities for all ages from babies to grandparents!  We have got even more press coverage planned and agreed, VIPs and The Lord Mayor attending (we hope!)

We are raising awareness and funds for PACT (Parents’ Association of Children with Tumours & Leukaemia) which is based in the Children’s Hospital, Sheffield.  Bradwell's Dairy Ice Cream is proudly sponsoring the event again, but this year we want to recruit a second major sponsor too.

The theme of this event is to get stuck into the countryside and have a go at a variety of activities from rock climbing, turbo bike speed challenge, orienteering, mountain biking, running, skateboarding, free running, heritage crafts, circus skills, animals, talent show, street dance, cheerleading, family strongman competition, face painting, tattoos, jewellery, cakes, local produce, buns, photo competition and fun inflatable activities…

If you can or know anyone who can

• Be a major Sponsor 
• help get involved
• raise some funds for PACT
• provide an activity
• volunteer on the day

Joe Scarborough Paints for PACT

James Burdall, Managing Director at The Norfolk Arms, has commissioned local artist Joe Scarborough to retell the story of The Great Pin Mill Barge Race, to raise funds for PACT.

Joe’s wonderful story telling, humour and images will capture the essence of this most famous race through the eyes of a young cabin boy. The story begins in the flatlands of Pin Mill in Suffolk. The barges regularly sailed passed the many farms on their way down the dangerous East Coast and into the pool of London.  

Next April, Joe, with his finished 30 x 44 inch original canvas, will be guest of honour at a specially organised celebration event at The Norfolk Arms.

At an ‘Evening with Joe Scarborough’ the invited audience will hear Joe re-tell the story and inspiration behind this latest painting with one or two entertaining stories from his incredible career.

“We are delighted Joe has accepted our invitation to be guest of honour at The Norfolk Arms and confident this canvas will capture the imagination of people in Sheffield, which in turn we hope will help support PACT.” says James Burdall

To find out more information about Joe’s canvas or to be invited to the ‘Evening with Joe Scarborough’, please contact Kate Allatt 07920 847 874 

Editors Notes:

Joe Scarborough is an artist born in Sheffield, England in 1938. He is most famous for painting humorous scenes of Sheffield life - everyday "real" images of the life and people of South Yorkshire.^[1]

As a face worker at the Thorpe Hesley colliery, he was inspired to paint by the contrast of the darkness of the mines and the lightness of the real world above the ground.^[1]

The original canvas painting  will be 30 inches x 44 inches. A special farm will feature in the story of the race and its name is yet to be revealed.

James Burdall, lives in Hangingwater, Sheffield with his wife Helen and two daughters.

PACT (Parents’ Association of Children with Tumours and Leukaemia) was founded in 1977 - with a donation of £113 - when eight parents created a support group for families whose children had cancer. PACT started raising funds for a Christmas party and a summer trip for the children. The charity expanded its remit to include children with leukaemia in 1978 and, as funds were secured, services grew to include new ideas like the provision of equipment and facilities for families.

In 1977 a child with cancer had a 55% chance of being alive 10 years after diagnosis. Today that has improved to more than 75%. However the cost of this is often prolonged and intensive treatment and sadly this is not always successful. PACT continues to be an invaluable source of both practical and emotional support for children and their families throughout their contact with the oncology unit.

Over the last 30 years PACT has continued to raise money to help support the families, and increasingly to support the ward and clinic at the hospital, as well as contributing in an ever-increasing way to the research.
