Yorkshire Coast Moorland Railway To Raise Funds For The Rainbow Centre Today

Sunday, 1 October 2023 06:00

By Charlie Hopper

The Moorland Railway and Gardens are once again welcoming people this afternoon to make up for a cancelled date in August. 

They will be raising money for the Rainbow Centre in Scarborough and visitors can take a ride on the miniature train, purchase cakes, teas and coffees as well as taking part in a tombola. 

Lisa Williams is from the railway and she hopes that the extra event will help raise funds for the charity.

The event that was scheduled for the Rainbow Centre was cancelled in August but the team wanted to make sure that they didn't miss out on raising funds for the centre, who offer support for people who are homeless and vulnerable. 

So far the Moorland Railway and Gardens has raised around £4,000 for charities and the event will run from 2pm-5pm.

Lisa Williams explains more about how people can contribute to the Rainbow Centre on the day.
