Festive
fundraising brings in cash for local groups and charities
Hundreds
of pounds was raised for local groups and charities at a popular
Christmas bazaar held in Burnham-On-Sea this week.
The
event, run by Burnham and District Lions Club, attracted crowds
of visitors to the town's Methodist Church in College Street.
A
wide variety of items were sold, including greetings cards and
gifts, on more than a dozen stalls from local groups and charities
including the Children's Hospice, Guide Dogs for the Blind, RNLI,
Somerset Court and St Margaret's Hospice.
Organiser
John Hodgson - pictured above with fellow organisers Wyn Davies
and Keith Conway during the event - said it had been a great success
and would likely become an annual event in the Lions Club's calendar.
