STOURBRIDGE and Brierley Hill Round Table’s annual sleigh outings have helped raise nearly £1,500 for charity.

Members of Round Table joined Santa and his sleigh for a series of collections around the borough in the run-up to Christmas during which they coined in a total of £1,473 for Stourton based Living Springs which provides care, support and hope to vulnerable children and families.

Chairman Dan Saunders thanked all those who donated and supported the fundraising initiative.

He added: “We are delighted to have raised this amount. The 2012 sleigh ride has again been a lot of fun and we are so grateful to everyone for their generous support and fantastic welcome on the doorstep in these recessionary times.”
