Clevedon angling shop reels in funds for Burnham-On-Sea hovercraft

Generous anglers in Clevedon have raised hundreds of pounds for the charity that runs Burnham-On-Sea's two life-saving hovercrafts.

A fundraising raffle at Oliver's Angling shop raised a total of £457 for BARB - and grateful crewmembers were handed a cheque by owner Maria Hobden on Sunday morning (December 16th).

BARB Deputy Operations Manager Dave Bailey said: "This is another excellent contribution from Maria, who has collected thousands of pounds for us over the years. We are incredibly grateful for all her hard work."
