A SINGING group’s festive entertainment has raised money for a charity that supports people living with MS.
Wokingham Choral Society presented a cheque for the amount of £315 to Sheila Butler, who received the sum on behalf of the Berkshire MS Therapy Centre, Reading.
Choir members had been invited to propose organisations before choosing to support one of them.
“We’re delighted to be able to make this donation to The Berkshire MS Therapy Centre,” says the choir’s chair Ms Alison Sears.
“ The money was raised from the retiring collection held at our Christmas concert.
“We are donating half of the total to this, our chosen charity, and the other half to Wokingham town mayor, Councellor Maria Gee’s chosen charity, Kaleidoscopic UK.”
The Berkshire MS Therapy Centre aims to make life with multiple sclerosis easier.
It has over 30 years of experience working with people from Berkshire and the surrounding counties, and offers specialised treatments for people who are newly diagnosed and seeking help for the first time, as well as those who have lived with MS for a while.
