CHEQUES totalling �1500 have been handed over to two charities following the money raising endeavours of Dunmow's Inner Wheel girls.
Club president Jane Askew presented two separate cheques to representatives of St Clare Hospice and the East Anglia Childrens Hospices at a special meeting at the Saracens Head.
Both Caroline Bore, from St Clare Hospice, and Nicky Jackson, from EACH, spoke of their gratitude for the money the club had raised on their behalf.
Mrs Bore added: "The inner wheel club can be certain that the money will be put to good use."
The evening was also the end of a very successful presidential year for Mrs Askew, who has recently agreed to sit for another year.
