Hope Pupils lend a hand

Pupils at the Hope School have been lending a hand to the local MacMillan charity.

Members of the ‘Hup Helping Hands’ fundraising group have helped raise money for a new CD player in the Macmillan Ward treatment room at the Balfour Hospital.

The money was raised through a bake sale at the school.

The group is now going on to raise money for Comic Relief on March 24, when they’ll also hold a Downs Syndrome awareness day.

Pictured above are pupils from the Hope school handing over the cheque to Roddy Harper, Specialist Nurse at Macmillan House.
