I WOULD like to thank all those who collected recently for Christian Aid in Bradford-on-Avon in Southway Park, Baileys Barn and Spencers Orchard.

Especial thanks to those of you who gave so generously, raising the magnificent sum of £1,009.59 (including Gift Aid) to help some of the very poor people of Bangladesh.

Rest assured your contributions will go directly to those in most need, not to politicians or governments.

Mike Fuller Methuen Close, Bradford-on-Avon
