KIND-HEARTED members of Elland Inner Wheel Club have donated more than £700 to overseas charities.

The social club’s donations have benefited people in the Hope Community Village in India and in a community clinic in Burkina Faso, West Africa.

They also knitted 105 blankets for the charity CART – the Christian African Relief Trust – and filled 52 shoe boxes for the Rotary Club Christmas Charity Appeal, collected pennies for polio and old spectacles for Sight Savers last year.
