Checkers of Churchtown MD Andrew Wareham said:
“We are one of the longest established family-run businesses in Southport.
“We have always been keen to do what we can to support local community events in Southport where we can.
“When event organiser Jess Rickers approached us to say that the Botanic Gardens Family Fun Day needed a sponsor, we were delighted to support it.
“The Botanic Gardens is a beautiful, historic park that has been enjoyed by many generations of local families, and we want to see it there to be visited for generations to come.
“The Botanic Gardens Community Association and the Make A Change For Botanic campaign group are doing a magnificent job in raising funds to improve the park and this annual fun day in June is one of their major fundraisers, with lots going on for people to enjoy.”
