MAY I, through your columns, say a very sincere thank you to all the kind people of High Wycombe, who came up trumps on Saturday 6th last (in spite of the economic downturn we are experiencing) and donated £437.20 to the Action for Children charity (formerly NCH the children’s charity).

The response to the carol singing in the Eden Centre by members of three choirs, The Trefoil Guild of the local Guide Association & Oakridge Baptist and Cryers Hill Methodist Churches was over £100 more than last year’s collection, and I also thank them for their efforts.

Action for Children aims to help the most vulnerable children, young people and their families have the opportunity to reach their full potential.

Thank you all very much.

Mrs J Hargrove, Secretary, Local Action for Children Support Group, name & address supplied.
