AN Accrington charity has been put in focus by a local business.
Accrington and District Blind Society has been presented with a digital camera by leading East Lancashire firm P3 Computers.
"It is a real help for us," said the society's Marion Clark. "We offer help to over 800 people in the Accrington and Rossendale area in various ways but we are a self-funded body so gestures like this are very obviously very welcome."
The digital camera donated by P3 was auctioned off in a fund-raising event organised by Accrington and Rossendale College, which raised over £2,000 for the charity.
"We were happy to help out," said P3's Chris Wildeman. "We have worked with them for some time on their IT needs."
