Money raised in Warrington

This from the Warrington Guardian, explaing how masons were moved to raise money for a man whom they read about.

"THE Warrington freemasons donated £1,000 to Bobby Brown's appeal for sight after reading about his condition.

Vic Charlesworth, the care officer for the Warrington Group of Masonic Lodges, was shown a letter asking for help for Bobby and immediately swung into action.

Group chairman Ian Boswell contacted other officers and within hours it had been agreed to make a donation of £1,000 from the West Lancashire Freemasons' Charity.

Ian said: "I am delighted that we have been able to act so speedily and hope that the target can be reached so that Bobby can receive the treatment he needs."

The Masonic Province of Cheshire is also making a £250 donation."
