Charity Soup and Pud Lunch does well for Children’ Society
The Soup and Pud lunch on October 16th at St Nicholas’ was a delicious success and has raised £424.52 so far. This includes a generous one-off £100 direct to the charity so that the Gift Aid could be reclaimed. There are still 16 collecting boxes to be counted, not all of which have been given in yet.
Organiser, Di Raikes commented, “It was really worthwhile down to a valiant band of helpers. So far to date this year, local fund raising for The Children’s Society has reached a total of £1380.52 . We are hoping to reach £1500, fingers crossed.”
