Vintage and classic vehicle owners will be displaying their motors at a special Father’s Day event taking place at a Somerset garden centre this weekend (June 20th and 21st).
Buses, motorbikes, vans and cars of all makes and models are expected at the Vintage and Classic Vehicle Weekend at Sanders Garden World, which coincides with Father’s Day on Sunday.
Peter Burks, General Manager at Sanders GardenWorld, said: “We are really looking forward to hosting the Vintage and Classic Vehicle Weekend again this year. The previous years’ events have all been a real success and this year we are hoping to have even more exhibitors at the garden centre displaying their vehicles.”
Allan Roberts from Freewheelers Emergency Voluntary Service (Freewheelers EVS), which is an organisation that transports medical supplies to hospitals in Somerset, is helping to organise the event to help raise money for the charity.
Allan and some of the volunteers from the charity will be at garden centre during the weekend displaying some of their motorbikes, which are used to transport items such as blood, X-Rays, vital instruments and drugs.
Freewheelers EVS is a registered charity that transports items on specially adapted motorcycles, which are equipped with blue lights and sirens for emergency use, from hospital to hospital in Somerset and beyond. Entry to the Vintage and Classic Vehicle Weekend is free although people can donate money to Freewheelers EVS.
