A SENIOR citizens club saw out 2023 with a donation to its town’s outdoor swimming pool.
Kingsteignton Senior Citizens Club’s (KSCC) final coffee morning of 2023 was an extra special affair, for the club made a sizeable donation to Kingsteignton Swimming Pool (KSP).
‘The swimming pool is a worthy charity for the Kingsteignton community to keep open,’ a spokesperson for the club said.
Club Chairman, John Wouters, presented a cheque for £1,500 to Linda Dawe, Vice-Chairman of Kingsteignton Swimming Pool.
The money was raised by two charity events held at the club during the last 12 months.
‘At each event we had a grand prize draw, and throughout the year members were making weekly donations - last year we raised £1,000’ the spokesman added.
The final coffee morning, which took place on December 16, saw many stalls set up, including a tombola, guess the weight of the cake and clothes and book sales.
