Wheels were in motion to support Andy Nichol memorial truck and tractor run

Families came together for a very worthwhile event, the Andy Nicholl memorial truck and tractor run on January 31, to raise funds for Scarva Primary School and for B Positive.

B positive is a charity based in Banbridge to support children through cancer diagnosis etc.

The charity was started in memory of Adam Watson who lost his battle with cancer 2022.

The last run was held in 2023 and raised £35,000 for Cancer Fund for Children, Scarva Primary School and another three local charities.

Scarva Primary School is a smaller rural school and is an essential part of the rural community. The decision to organise and hold the tractor and truck run was to raise much needed funds for the school community and support children’s cancer charity.

Unfortunately cancer claimed the life of Andy Nicholl and Adam Watson. It has and continues to affect many within the school community and further afield.

Cancer does not discriminate between age, sex or religion etc. This is a great opportunity for the whole community to come together to support a local school community and raise awareness and support for children cancer charity.
