TWO hospices have received welcome donations from Tyldesley Rotary Club fund-raisers.

A collection of £225 made during a well-supported Churches Together With Rotary carol concert has been sent to Wigan and Leigh Hospice and the £300 proceeds of a race night will benefit patients at St Ann's Hospice, Little Hulton.

There will be a general distribution of Christmas collections at the end of the Rotary year.

President John Alderman said: "We would like to thank the people of Tyldesley for supporting our events."
