The money was raised from the proceeds of a Limited EditionLemon, Garlic, Oregano and Thyme Oiland a 44-mile sponsored walk along the Wold Rangers Way. Yorkshire Rapeseed Oil also supported Ryedale Special Families with giveaways for its primary annual fundraiser, The Yorkshire Wolds Cycle Challenge and hosted families from the charity for a Farm Education Day.

Ryedale Special Families began in the early 1990's when a group of 20 families of disabled children started to meet in their own homes in order to share challenges and experiences, as well as offer mutual support to each other. It became a registered charity in 1997 and now provides support to350 families throughout the Ryedale area.
