We are all wheelie grateful

GRATEFUL residents of a York sheltered housing scheme raised nearly £300 for a York charity that provides transport for the elderly. The residents of Lovel House, in Dringhouses, depend on York Wheels to take them out on social trips and visits to hospital. The residents held a coffee morning on Tuesday, and raised £400, with almost £300 going to the charity. The remainder of the money was given to the Pat Dog Association, a scheme which organises visits from dogs to the residents each week. Manager of Lovel House, Jill Bateman, said they had chosen York Wheels because many of the residents depended on the service and she had been overwhelmed with the amount of money raised.
