Making strides for Mercy Ships
[ November 15, 2018 // Chris ]Kind-hearted Stena Line cabin assistant Sarah Scowcroft has vowed to raise funds for Mercy Ships for the rest of her life, after experiencing first-hand the life-saving work carried out on board the hospital ship Africa Mercy in Guinea.
Last year, as part of a donation campaign for the Stena Line designated charity, Sarah, who works on the Stena Superfast X between Holyhead and Dublin, and a team of colleagues raised £7,414.96 by organising a 34-mile charity walk around the Scottish Lakes, a figure that was then doubled by Stena Line chairman Dan Sten Olsson.
In recognition of the great strides made by Sarah in her fund-raising efforts, she was invited to visit the Africa Mercy ship to witness how the money raised is being used.
