Barrow has always been a place of generosity and kindness, especially for those who are less well off. Charity events such as Comic Relief and Red Nose Day have never failed to bring out the best of the county s people. In 1990 cricketers Roy Carton and Bob Mackie took part in a one-mile sponsored ‘nose sprout push’ at Haverigg Cricket Club to raise funds for the club. After finishing their effort, Bob headed off to Askam to help Haverigg s A team achieve victory in a cup match. The wacky theme continued in 1993 as people in Furness raised cash for Comic Relief.
