I would like to sincerely thank everyone who came to the Sidmouth United Reformed Church, Chapel Lane, on Saturday, May 17.

Misty Roses Duo (Peter Fung and Sue King) played beautiful music and Sid Vale Community Productions performed Christine Hardy’s play The Long Shadow in aid of Sidmouth Hospice Care.

A fantastic and heartwarming £500 was raised for the Sidmouth Centre from a bucket collection.

On behalf of all involved I am very grateful to everyone for their superb generosity.
