PUPILS from a Winsford primary school held a charity coffee morning for St Luke’s Hospice.

The sale of cakes, coffee and tea took place in the assembly hall at St Chad’s Primary School.

Pupils raised £207.86 for St Luke’s Hospice, which requires £7,500 a day to operate.

Rhys Edwards Corporate and Community said: “We would like to say a huge thank you to all the students who took part, it was a lovely afternoon and everyone had a great time.

“The money raised will help provide vital patient care and services at the hospice.”

Shannon Mitchell, who was appointed as Winsford’s new junior mayor earlier this month.

The St Chad’s Primary School pupil and her cousin also donated £20 to the hospice last month, after they sold some of her toys.

Cllr Mike Kennedy, who is an ambassador for St Luke’s Hospice, said: “Shannon said they would all do something at the school for St. Luke's Hospice, a couple of weeks later, job done.

“I’m very proud to be councillor for their ward and an ambassador for St Luke's Cheshire Hospice.”
