HAWORTH & Worth Valley Rotary Club has received a £1,000 donation for an international scheme that helps young people.

Club president Chris Bown and international chairman Angie Pleasants visited Lomeshaye Junior School, in Nelson, to accept a cheque for School in a Bag.

The charity provides learning materials and personal equipment to children to enable them to attend school.

Lomeshaye’s fundraising efforts, through a summer fair, have paid for 50 bags for children in the Ivory Coast.

Angie was a head at Lomeshaye Junior School until three years ago.
