Hide AdA FHP spokesperson said: “Thank you for everyone’s help and support in distributing the winter fund grants. We managed to negotiate the original £5000 up to £7000 and it has all been distributed.
"Now 70 hard pressed families and 110 kids have benefited and that is a great achievement.”
FHP still has grant availability to assist homeless resettlement and disadvantaged families and those with disability issues.
