That said, we have managed to help out a few worthwhile causes this year and a Telephone call from a lady called Joanne concerning her son Lewis has really tugged at the heartstrings.    This has to be the most rewarding call I have taken recently and it was a total pleasure speaking to Joanne Edmundson (Lewis's mum) knowing that we could help in some small way.   Joanne informed us that Lewis was Darts Mad and wanted to be able to meet some of the Players he watches on TV.

Friday 21^st July – at The Belroy Hotel, 45, Hull Road, Blackpool from 6pm to 10pm – is a night set aside especially for Lewis to fulfil that wish.

We will also be running an auction of various Darting memorabilia to raise some important funds for the Lewis Edmundson Appeal, the St Mary's Hospital at Manchester and for the Alderhey Childrens Hospital where the kids stay in the Ronald McDonald House while undergoing treatments etc.   Also monies perhaps to take Lewis to other places etc or wherever he wants to go to enable him to have as many happy memories as possible and with his brother too. I am quite sure the evening will be a success and that both Lewis and his brother Damian will have a great time.

Special thanks go to Craig and Jessica of the Belroy and for providing a buffet on the evening. Paul and Jo Wilson for providing the Darts Display Stand/set up (and cute Smiffy Tee-shirts!!? To Paul Weller of Origin Storage Solutions for providing the dartboards and surrounds and of course to every player that has agreed to donate or attend in person to help/meet Lewis.  We would really appreciate players (whoever can make the odd 20 minutes to pop in have a chat and maybe play a couple of games with anyone).

He has an older brother called Damian who is aged 12 and he is fantastic with his little brother. Granada TV have brought him to media attention and this is set to increase as his story gets told over the coming months.
