A CHARITY aiming to build a children's hospice for Kirklees and Calderdale has received a £4,000 boost.

The West Yorkshire Forget Me Not Trust has been presented with £4,184.50 by Examiner Travel.

The money was raised over the past year from raffles held on holidays and trips run by Examiner Travel.

Every year Examiner Travel gives the proceeds of its raffles to a different charity.

This is the second time it has given the cash to the West Yorkshire Forget Me Not Trust.
