A CHARITY has benefited from a huge donation thanks to the work of a local Rotary club.

The Rotary Club of Bracknell welcomed Mark Clements from Macmillan Cancer Care to its meeting on Tuesday, May 22, where he was presented with a cheque for £2,000 from the group.

The money was collected by members of the Rotary Club across various activities over the last 12 months.

After receiving the cheque, Mr Clements explained the work of the charity to the group and said the money would be used to support cancer patients and their families within the local area.

The Rotary Club's next big fundraising event will be the Three Counties Cycle Ride on Sunday, June 3. For more information visit www.3ccr.org.
