WE would like to thank all in Darwen who contributed to our recent house-to-house collection which raised £1,250.

Also, following our appeal through your newspaper for bric-a-brac, we received an excellent response and raised £4,454 from our stall at Darwen's Petticoat Lane Market on May 29.

Thank you to everyone for the splendid support they always give us in all our efforts.

MARION WALSH (Secretary) and Rita Flynn (Treasurer), Darwen Local Committee, Cancer Research Campaign.
