Dinner in aid of Scott Beanlands
Scott
is 27 years old and lives in Blaby. He suffers from Multiple
Sclerosis (MS) and is hoping that a new treatment - stem cell
injections will improve his condition. However, Scott needed £13,000
to travel to Holland and get this treatment.
Little India and a lifelong friend of Scotts, Adrian Natzel (a County Councillor
for Wigston) hosted a buffet dinner on 6 March. All the proceeds from tickets
went to Scott’s fund and an auction raised hundreds more. A raffle brought
the total raised on the night to £2,260.
