Cheque Presented From Outgoing Mayor

Angel Trust were delighted to be invited to the Bishop Auckland Town Council meeting last night to be presented with a cheque from the outgoing Mayor, Cllr Joy Allen. Due to COVID and the severe restrictions on public meetings and events, Cllr Allen staged fundraisers over an 18 month period in aid of Angel Trust. Clair McGregor, Angel Trust's CEO, who received a cheque for £4,792, said it has been a very supportive partnership working alongside The Town Council, especially in a year where events were planned with such uncertainty and unfortunately cancelled. However, the community may be assured that the funding will make fundamental differences to a lot of people's lives within the area. For the remaining 6 months of Cllr Allen's 2 years in office, funds were raised for SSAFA who received £1,205.
