A SPECIALLY-built Morgan Roadster valued at £40,000 is up for grabs in a special one-off raffle event to raise money for a worker at the motor company.

The raffle will be launched at a party in a marquee at the company's Pickersleigh Road, Malvern, premises.

For the price of a £5 ticket, customers will have the chance to win the unique Roadster built to individual specifications.

The party, on Saturday, April 28, is the official launch of the Thom Don-aldson Appeal, to raise funds for factory apprentice Thom Donaldson. Mr Donaldson is paralysed from the neck down after an accident last summer. He spent his 21st birthday in hospital, following spinal surgery and physiotherapy.

His colleagues joined forces to raise funds for the special equipment he needs to make daily life easier.

The appeal has so far raised £11,500. The party will include a champagne reception, three-course dinner and charity auction. Comedian Jerry Thomas and live band Freezone will provide entertainment.

Tickets cost £30 per head, or £240 for a table of eight. Call 01684 573104 for party tickets. Raffle tickets can be bought on the night, or at Morgan dealers or factory.
