Crew Commander Paul Davies, one of the organizers of the car wash in St Neots, said, “Car washes held across the county are always really well supported by the community and we hope to see local residents pop along during the afternoon to help us raise funds for this worthwhile charity.”
“The pandemic has had a huge effect on fundraising for the charity, so every penny raised will make a massive difference.”
