Burnham-On-Sea's
Sounds and Voices group receives £3,640 windfall
 A
Burnham-On-Sea group that provides local news on audio cassettes
for blind and visually impaired residents has this week received
a windfall of more than £3,000.
Sounds
and Voices provides cassette tapes of news and information on
a regular basis to 75 blind and visually impaired people in the
Burnham area, plus disabled people who have difficulty leaving
their home.
On
Wednesday (January 14th), the group received £3,000 from
County Councillor Rose Parsons from her Community Fund, and a
further £640 from Burnham Lions Club.
The
group's John Bryan told Burnham-On-Sea.com: "We are delighted
and very grateful for these donations, which will be used to buy
new digital recording equipment to make it easier to produce our
cassettes."
