Freedom from Hunger

Nelson and district residents really dug deep in their pockets to help the nation-wide Freedom from Hunger Campaign sponsored by Corso. The last we heard was that £7887 had been collected, compared with £3572 for a similar collection last year. This sum included an anonymous donation of £1000, and at least one £50 note.
