Bury Town Pastors

Bury Town Pastors is a church-based initiative which sees volunteers spend time on the streets of the town centre during nights out to ensure revellers are safe and cared for. They are widely associated with the Freddo bars they give out to help mitigate the effects of too many drinks so revellers can get home safely, but they also provide numerous services including water, foil blankets, and important services such as first aid and a listening ear.

Haverhill Scouts and Guides

Haverhill Scouts and Guides are aiming to raise tens of thousands of pounds so that their current huts, which are not fit for purpose, can be replaced. HaverTri was held to raise money to help the group in its fund raising push. The final total raised for this good cause is yet to be finalised, but is set to be thousands of pounds. The town has 2 Scouts groups - 1st Haverhill and 2nd Haverhill Sea Scouts - as well as a Guide group.

Other beneficiaries

Our athletes are also welcome to support a charity of their choice, and have used our events to raise money for other good causes. Examples include Andy Brown, who raised £700 for Diabetes UK while competing in his first triathlon at HaverTri - the Haverhill Research Park Triathlon.
