STREET collections have been made on behalf of Yorkshire Cancer Research recently.
On July 19, in Pickering and Thornton-le-Dale, despite very poor weather, £672.62 was collected.
On August 6, £382 was collected in Kirkbymoorside.
The committee would like to thank everyone who supported our charity, including the collectors, without whom these amounts would not have been collected.
All the money is transferred to our head office in Harrogate to contribute to the £6m needed to fund the research at the five Yorkshire universities to find causes and cures for cancer.
Valerie Chadwick, secretary Yorkshire Cancer Research
