THE Moving Group, based in Lostock Lane, Lostock, sponsored the Bury & District branch of the Multiple Sclerosis Society with a £100 donation.

TMG also released 5,000 balloons to signify receipt of the society's baton, which had travelled throughout the North-west.

The following day the company went to Manchester city centre and joined a procession of various vehicles -- including classic cars and a Viking boat -- representing 47 different MS regions.
