Braunston Outreach solar event..

Post by Richard »

Hi all, not sure if this link will work, its the blog for the Braunston Air Ambulance event we helped with, we did our bit with letting people view the Sun in 2 PST's a pair of solar white light binoculars and also with a solar projector.
A great charity event which raised over £2350 for the local air ambulance...
