ON behalf of the Worcester Lions Club, I would like to take this opportunity to thank the citizens of Worcester for their unprecedented generosity towards our recent Santa Sleigh collection.
The collection was staged nightly throughout December and raised the fantastic total of £4,740 for local charities. Every penny raised will soon be finding its way towards helping local good causes. Nothing is taken by way of "expenses" or "overheads".
Special thanks must certainly go to Lister's Audi of St John's, which donated the services of a "liveried" towing vehicle for the whole of December and their staff who volunteered to drive it.
HSS Hire Shops of Barbourne donated a power unit that lit Santa on his way and last, but by no means least, we would like to thank the youngsters from local Guide units and their Leaders.
Their help and support with the doorstep collection was magnificent.
TOM BARNES,
Worcester Lions Club.
