More than £5,500 was raised in Christmas street collections – thanks to the generosity of the public.
The money was raised in 16 separate collections across the county in the weeks before Christmas. Once again the public demonstrated astounding levels of generosity as our small but determined army of tin shaking volunteers braved the damp and cold of our festive high streets.
They were stunned in one collection (Southwell) to raise £1,250.47. A more detailed breakdown follows:
- Radcliffe on Trent: £270.74
- Royal Centre: £312.98
- Mapperly Top: £441.34
- Burton Joyce: £540.15
- West Bridgford: £444.68
