The Rotary Club of Lyme Regis was delighted to be able to donate £800 to Children’s Hospice South West.
Despite being unable to hold its traditional Carols Round the Christmas Tree event, Rotarians were able to raise these funds from the Christmas street collection in Lyme Regis and Charmouth.
Mary Gray from CHSW attended a Rotary meeting to receive the cheque from club president Chris Buckingham.
Club spokesman Peter Fortnam said: “Visit chsw.org.uk to see some of the fantastic work this hospice does to help children with life limiting conditions.”
Mr Fortnam added: “They give free support to over 500 families in the south west 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and have three centres – in Barnstaple, Bristol and St Austell – relying almost completely on fundraising.”
