On Monday 12th April, a fundraising night was held at the Cock & Bull in Uckfield in memory of Luke Bland.
Luke Bland was a member of the 4th Uckfield Scout Band for many years as a drummer. He was tragically taken from us last year and this is the first of several fundraising events planned to raise money to purchase musical instruments for local schools and organisations.
A total of £290.45 was raised from this event and it will be donated to the 4th Uckfield Scout Band to help purchase new instruments, equipment and to help towards repair costs.
Event organiser Becky Samuels said “I would like to thank all the local businesses that made donations. Luke Bland was loved by everyone that knew him and he would be so proud of how much this event raised”.
