Help for Hope 4

They collected £423.56 for the Rugby group which helps homeless and badly-housed people by holding a stall selling hot drinks and games.

Claire Heritage from Fine & Country, said: “Donations are still coming in and we would like to thank everyone who donated and helped make the afternoon a great success.

“Those who use Hope 4 are people who genuinely need help to get back on their feet.

“All of the team at Fine & Country have visited Hope 4 and have seen first hand what a fantastic job the volunteers do and we are proud to support such a worthwhile local cause. We wanted to organise an event that would not only raise awareness but also raise some money for such a great charity. The Christmas light switch on was a great opportunity to get involved with the general public; everybody was so generous and we can’t thank them enough for donations and support.”
