Enjoy a unique collection of classic and vintage cars, motorcycles and ex-Army vehicles at Farnham’s annual Classic Car Show, which will be held on Sunday 14th April from 10am to 4pm in Farnham’s Central Car Park. You’ll also be able to browse the show’s autojumble for any spare vehicle parts you may need, and can buy refreshments throughout the day.
The show will help raise money for local charity Phyllis Tuckwell Hospice Care, which this year celebrates its 40th anniversary. Since 1979, Phyllis Tuckwell has provided supportive and end of life care for local patients and families who are living with an advanced or terminal illness, such as cancer. Every day it supports over 250 patients, relatives and carers, offering medical and nursing care, therapies, counselling, social work advice and practical support. However, as the NHS/Government only covers 20% of its costs, it has to raise over £20,000 a day to do this.
“The Classic Car Show is a much-loved event for many local vehicle enthusiasts and we would like to thank everyone involved in organising and running it, especially Hermon Frost, who has been a supporter of Phyllis Tuckwell for many years,” said Leanne Magee, Community Fundraiser at Phyllis Tuckwell. “Last year the event raised just over £800, which is enough to pay for over a week’s care from one of our physiotherapists, who help our patients to remain as independent and mobile as possible throughout all stages of their illness.”
Entry to the Classic Car Show is free, and all donations received on the day are given directly to Phyllis Tuckwell. If you would like to display your vehicle at the show, please register with Hermon Frost on 01252 320439.
