CHAIRMAN of the Mary Budding Trust Alan Johnson and trustee Jackie Freedman received a cheque for £425 from Amanda McOwan, manager of the Curves gym in Tavistock recently.

Members of the gym raised the money by working out in their pyjamas and sponsoring Amanda in the Tavy 13 run.

The trust expressed thanks to Amanda and all the staff and members of Curves for supporting the local charity which gives grants to children with special needs in West Devon.
