A CHARITY based in Harrogate and Ripon has crowned its latest fund-raising campaign by marking the forthcoming Diamond Jubilee in an unusual way.

Every Easter, the Carers Resource team up with Cadbury’s to knit Easter chick covers for the chocolate giant’s famed crème eggs.

This year, a team of volunteers knitted 1,500 covers – raising a ‘cracking’ amount of money to help fund the support and advice it offers to the district’s growing number of carers.
