Sir.–The Basingstoke Lions Club would like to thank the shoppers of Basingstoke, who donated so generously to our collection prior to Christmas. The appeal at Basing Linden Market, The Malls, Homebase, Co-op Winklebury, and the Chineham shopping centre raised £2,677.03. As the club is financed by its members, the public who made donations can be assured that every penny donated has been distributed to local residents who needed help over the Christmas period. For more information on who we are, and our forthcoming events, go to basingstokelions.org.uk.
