Other useful information:

Our committee has proved to be an especially useful forum for networking between the local charities.
The funds raised are distributed equally (usually annually) between the member charities.
Members are Age Concern Wirral, Crossroads Caring for Carers, Talking Newspapers for the Blind, Multiple Sclerosis Society, Wirral Autistic Society and Wirral Toy Library and Resource Centre.
We send newsletter to all our donors, normally twice each year, to update them on our members’ progress and how their financial support is being used.

As a committee we would like to extend our appreciation to all of our current donors, whose valued monthly contributions support a very diverse and local group of vulnerable adults, children and their carers.

To prospective donors, we trust you will support this initiative of local charities working together and supporting each other.
