Janet Collins said: “We had quite a few people pulling up and donating. A nice guy pulled up and donated ice pops.”
The bed push ended back at the pub where there was a fun day taking place which saw 12 bands perform.
Janet added: “As part of the fundraising, two guys from the pub also did a sponsored yomp — an 80-mile walk from North Yorkshire.
“They set off on Thursday morning and arrived at the pub on Saturday morning.”
