Sean's Battle To Save Whitby Childrens' Charity

A Whitby man is aiming to raise £30,000 for a charity in the town that supports local children and young people with disabilities and additional needs.

However, due to reduced funding and rising costs, without raising £30,000, InterActive Whitby will close its doors in 2025.

You can donate via Sean's GoFund Me page.
