A Guinness World Record was broken on Sunday in Dromolaxia at the orchard of Ayios Lazaros, with the preparation of a 75-metre-long sheftalia.

The effort was part of the fourth Charity Festival “Ayios Lazaros and his little friend Savvas” which is held annually to mark the Feast of the Translation of the Holy Relics of Ayios Lazaros. This year saw the participation of over 150 organisations.

The aim of the event is to provide enjoyment to people of all ages while raising funds for the Ayios Lazaros centre for adults with disabilities, which supports adults with mild and moderate intellectual challenges.

The proceeds also went to other charitable institutions offering care, education and health services.
