Gillian Gregory, our Team Secretary, in her capacity as the Support Group member who co-ordinates all our collection boxes, has the following good news to share about the success of all our collection boxes over the last year – 2015;
“We are very pleased to announce the total figure of £3,510.25 in donations from all our collecting tin sites during 2015.
This compares favourably with the 2014 total of £3,232.29.
We currently have 105 registered sites and are keen to increase this number to 150, so if our readers are able to help with new places to host our collecting tins, we would be most grateful for your support.”
The following sites have generated income for us in 2015 by kindly hosting our collecting tins and we take this opportunity to thank them and all their kind and generous customers who have contributed towards the fantastic total reported above.
