THE fine weather and the generosity of the shoppers in the Shirley Precinct, plus the assistance from the staff in Sainsbury’s, made this a memorable collection.

Over the two days – Friday 11 and Saturday, 12 July, our band of collectors raised £889.31.

This is our best result for this year and it shows that people are willing to give to worthy causes.

We are always looking for volunteers to assist us in our fundraising, and if you have two hours to spare on a Friday or Saturday we would be pleased to welcome you to our dedicated band.
