Tower and Town, October 2024 (view the full edition)Marlborough Area Poverty Action Group (MAPAG )This summer, we have been very well supported by helpers and donations especially a generous donation from the Area Board . We have been able to organise 3 outings for families in our catchment area, mainly those who have at least one child at Marlborough's Primary Schools. Despite on each occasion leaving the Waitrose car park in pouring rain, they were much enjoyed. The first was to Bournemouth, the second Weston Super Mare. For both trips we arrived in dry weather and saw occasional sun. Most of the children braved the sea. The last was to Marwell Zoo, when the weather was less favourable, but we still got very good feedback. Thank you to all who gave us their support. Towards Christmas we will again be raising funds for vouchers for families in need Rachel Rosedale |
