Kindhearted bikers brave arctic weather for needy children
BIKERS braved arctic weather conditions to deliver Christmas cheer to needy children in the borough.
Members of local motorbike club, Doggs Bollocks MCC, decorated their bikes with tinsel and baubles before driving through the streets of Ruislip and Uxbridge, accompanied by two Santas and an elf.
The festively-themed convoy were on their way to Hillingdon Hospital to drop off presents and proceeds from a Toy Run, held last Saturday (19).
The club collected toys and cash donations for the Peter Pan and Wendy children's wards, as well as the Paediatric A&E unit.
Club secretary, Jayne Davies said: "Thanks to the generosity of people including staff at HGB Motorcycles in Ruislip, members of the Ruislip British Legion and customers of The Breakspear Arms pub, the club amassed six large sacks of toys and £320 in cash.
"The money will be put toward a pirate-themed playground, due to be built in the hospital grounds, and ward manager, Chris Mann, said the money will be a great help towards the total."
Doggs Bollocks MCC meets at The Breakspear Arms every Wednesday from 8pm and new visitors are welcome.
The club has been raising money for charity since its inception four years ago, and next year's chosen cause is Help For Heroes.
