As you may know RAY was one of York’s Lord Mayor’s charities. Councillor Barbara Boyce was the Lord Mayor last year and she chose RAY to be one of the three charities supported during her year of office. The numerous fund raising events that took place during the year raised over £45,000 which is a fantastic achievement, and a massive thank you to everyone concerned.
Here’s Councillor Barbara Boyce (in the middle) presenting the cheque to Carole Jackson and Lois Gregory of RAY.

Ray Chair's report 2017
A massive 'THANK YOU' to the Cornish family who have completed the Coast To Coast walk to raise awareness of refugees and also to raise funds for RAY. What a great achievement. You can read about their challenge on their blogspot - http://c2cfamilies.blogspot.co.uk/ - and can also make a donation there. They are close to their target of raising £5,000. Brilliant, thank you!
RAY has received funding from the Two Ridings Community Foundation which will help fund a Parenting Course and also assist with transport costs for Syrian refugee families to come to The Hub - Thank You!
