Last month we shared a video of local friends Hattie and Alice completing their Charity Shop Challenge, with charities set to benefit as the number of video views increased.
Samaritans was one of several charities nominated to receive £100 from generous supporter Michael Mogan once Hattie's and Alice's video achieved 10000 views. With views of the video now sitting at well over 10000, true to his word Michael kindly made a donation to our branch last week.
Michael said, "I promised if they got enough views that I would give to charity - I never expected it to really fly! I now have to donate to your good cause - which will be a pleasure to do."
Thank you Michael and thank you Hattie, Alice, and friends for highlighting the vital work of local charities.
The donation will go towards the running costs of the branch, enabling our volunteers to continue to provide emotional support to people who are struggling or feeling suicidal.
