Members of the TBP Club (The Three Penny Bit Club) this week presented a cheque for £1500 "Do if for Dementia" at Northampton General Hospital.
The TPB Club was set up after the loss of a Northampton Mason, Bro Sedja Hunt, in November 2013, and requires all members to carry a 1967 Three Penny Bit coin with them. If a member is caught without their TPB coin, then a £5.00 contribution (or fine!) to charity is required. The TPB has previously donated over £1000 to charity, and this most recent donation is made up of £900 in "fines" and a hefty provincial enhancement of £600. You can follow the TPB club here, and see some of the members who regualrly appear on the wall of shame!
These funds will go towards creating a sensory garden within the Elderly Care area of Northampton General Hospital, where its hoped a small patch of rather sad land can be turned into a safe, tranquil area where patients, family and friends can sit in peace and safety.
