The street collection for the annual Christmas Appeal organised by the Rotary in Saffron Walden in the run up to Christmas raised almost £6000.00.
The final proceeds will be distributed to local charities in the New Year,
Rotary in Saffron Walden’s Community Service Committee chairman, Matthew Pollitt, said “Once again the people of Saffron Walden have been very generous in supporting our Christmas Appeal to support local good causes – to all of them we say a huge thank you”.
Pollitt praised the club members, supporters and friends of the Club including the local Inner Wheel Club, Round Table and Probus Clubs who gave their time making the collection, at various points around the town. He also thanked the Club’s handbell group, The Tinkerbells, who performed several times in the Market Square.
He said that without all the help received the total would not have been possible.
