MEMBERS of the Institute of Quarrying have given a £1,500 cheque to the Yorkshire Air Ambulance.
The money was raised when the Yorkshire branch held its annual dinner dance at Harrogate's Majestic Hotel in March.
The vice-chairman of the Yorkshire branch of the institute, Kevin Parker, who is also general manager of Lightwater Quarrys, at North Stainley, near Ripon, was delighted with the response from members and guests.
"Many of our members do a lot of travelling and our industry is potentially hazardous so we thought the Yorkshire Air Ambulance was an appropriate charity to support," he said.
