Sponsored balloon ride in memory of relatives

TWO pensioners from Wootton Bassett are taking to the skies in memory of late relatives.
Frank Ashton, 87, and 81-year-old Maureen Best have organised a sponsored hot air balloon flight to raise money for Prospect Hospice.
The flight will take place on May 2, just a few days before what would have been the 61st birthday of Maureen’s daughter Ann, who lost her battle with cancer last year. Frank also lost his second wife, Mary, to the disease in 2006.
The pair met at a Christmas event at which they were the only two people able to ballroom dance, and their friendship has grown from there, aided by their shared interest in fundraising.
Frank said: “My aim is to raise as much money as possible for the hospice.”
