MAY I through your paper thank everyone who helped at our annual tin collection, held in the Coppergate Centre, York, on Saturday, April 22.

The collection raised £280 for York Hospital Radio. Thanks to the Coppergate staff for their help and to the public who gave to our charity.

Special thanks to our patron, Harry Gration, for giving his valuable time to visit, and to all our volunteers who give their time to York Hospital Radio.
