‘Elping the National Elf

Michael Ashurst will no doubt be delighted to be reminded of his decision to raise money for charity by dressing up as an elf at Christmas.

Encouraged by his friends and colleagues at Jasper’s coffee shop, Michael raised an elfy £255 which has been donated to Macmillan Cancer Support.

Jasper’s owner Sunaina Kohli thanked everyone who had donated money. “We raised that amount in only 10 days,” she said, “our customers have been very generous.”

Look out for Michael at Easter, when he and the rest of Jasper’s staff will be raising money for The North East Air Ambulance.
