Caravanners raised money for the Nottinghamshire Air Ambulance serviceCaravan enthusiasts in Skegness have helped raise thousands of pounds for charity.

According to the Skegness Standard, residents at Taggs Caravan Site clubbed together to donate £7,000 to the Nottinghamshire Air Ambulance and Skegness Lifeboat Association.

 The funds were raised by holding a number of events, including bingo and raffles during the summer season.

 The newspaper revealed that drinkers at the local Tunny’s Tavern have spent the last decade raising cash for the lifeboat service, generating a total of around £25,000.

Caravanners heading to Skegness may be interested in checking out the pier, which has been standing for more than 125 years.

It hosts a ten pin bowling alley, amusement arcades, laserquest, kids’ play area and numerous places to eat.

Other attractions include Batemans  Brewery, the National Parrot Sanctuary and Skegness Stadium, which holds stockcar racing events.

Those looking to try their hand at water sports such as waterskiing could also do so at Skegness Water Leisure.
