Field’s gives �100 to Sidmouth man to help fund his Everest climb.

FIELD’S of Sidmouth is to support Sidmouth man Baz Breadmore in his bid to raise funds for his climb to Everest base camp.

They will sponsor his Variety Show at the Manor Pavilion Theatre in November, which, coincidentally, Julie Salmon, a buyer at Fields, will take part in.

“Although our decision to sponsor Baz is outside of our usual criteria, we felt that Baz, being a local man with fantastic achievements already under his belt, deserved our support and we will be encouraging him all the way,” said Claire Jenkins, promotions and marketing manager.

Baz said: “I am thrilled that Fields have agreed to sponsor me.”
