Labour councillors support local good works

Anne Brown, County Councillor for the Western part of Leyland, has been proud that her nominations for small grants have helped so many local groups who do good work in Leyland.

This year alone, the Widows Welcome Club, two playgroups, a support group for people suffering from M.E. and a voluntary, young people's club have benefited.

I was particularly delighted to be asked to support the provision of a book for every child at Moss Side Playgroup, to take home, linking with this terms project. In any case it is one of my favourite books, We're going on a Bear Hunt".
