Emma Carter (Top Squad) has written the below message as thanks for the support of DASC members at the December Fun Night where Emma had organised a cake stall and competitions.

Thank you to everyone who supported my cake sale at the DASC fun night. The total amount raised was £67.50, which is a huge help. All the guesses to the sweets in the jar competition were very close, but the winner with the closest guess was William Oliver and the jar was given to him on Christmas Eve. Thank you to everyone who took part.

Emma has recently been selected by Durham Scouts for the opportunity of a lifetime – to attend the 25th World Jamboree in Korea 2023. In order to attend Emma has to raise a lot of money and is busy with lots of fundraising efforts. Alongside the cake sale Emma intended to do the Boxing Day Dip, but unfortunately huge waves on the day cancelled that dip. But not deterred Emma took a friend along to Redcar a couple of days later when the weather had calmed for their own boxing day dip. Emma reported it was FREEZING!
