The fright is right for college fundraisers!
Students put on a frightful show at West Nottinghamshire College, all in the name of helping a cancer charity.
All travel and tourism students collected loose change and took £1 donations from everyone who took part in the scarefest two-day fancy dress event before their half term break at the end of October.
Students dressed up as zombies, witches, black cats, pirates and other Halloween-related characters on the Tuesday and Wednesday (21 and 22 October) before the college holidays.
Over £150 was collected for the Mercedes Curnow Foundation which is a charity set up to detect early cervical cancer, in honour of Mercedes who died aged just 23.
Travel and tourism tutor Sabrina Sandhu said: “Thank you to everyone who donated to the students’ event. Everyone looked absolutely brilliant in their costumes and they brought a sense of fun to raising the cash for the Mercedes Curnow Foundation, which is our nominated charity of the year.”
