FUND RAISING FOR THE NATIONAL BLIND CHILDREN’S SOCIETY

I’M FROM ATHENS!

Torquay & District Soroptimist International are pleased to report they helped raise funds for children with visual impairment.  A cheque for £55.00 was sent to the National Blind Children’s Society after selling a ‘Baby Adoptables’ card.

Members were encouraged to pick a place name for £1.00.  The winner who guessed where the baby Panda came from was President Veronica Prowse who was pleased to hear that her choice of Athens was the winner, she gets to take the Panda home and we hope that he enjoys life in Paignton.

The money donated will will help the National Blind Children’s Society provide funding for recreational activities and equipment, computers and IT equipment, activity holidays and respite care and large print books for schools.
