Wendi Peters supports Give a Gift Appeal for Macmillan
Howard Lake | 29 November 2007 | News
TV soap star Wendi Peters is supporting the launch of the ‘Give a Gift’ Appeal, Yorkshire Building Society’s 2007 Christmas fundraising appeal in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support.
The appeal will raise money to provide grants for people living with cancer. Grants can be used for the many unexpected costs associated with cancer such as travel costs to and from hospital appointments or visits, childcare costs or even to ensure the heating bills are paid.
Limited edition cuddly toys and festive pin badges will be on sale at the Yorkshire’s branches and agencies throughout the appeal, which runs until 31 December. All money raised by the appeal will be matched pound for pound by the Yorkshire Building Society Charitable Foundation.
