The cheque was given to the charity on Monday, July 23, by the Revd Simon Howard and event organisers Paul and Pam Bromley.Global Hearts for Children – formerly known as Feed The Children (UK) helps vulnerable children and their communities alleviates poverty through humanitarian relief, promoting health and education, and developing sustainable solutions.
