The charity shop in Fleet Street has donated some of its proceeds to:

  • £500 to Whaplode Primary School swimming pool committee

  • £500 to Home Start.

Treasurer Iris Boland said: “Chosen Charity donated over £19,000 to local causes in 2013. Our target for 2014 is £25,000.
“We would like to thank all our faithful customers for their continued support that makes Chosen Charity so successful.”
