Various community groups, including members of Hungerford Rotary Club, met at The British Legion in Hungerford to collect Christmas parcels to distribute to the over 80's in the district. This scheme, which is set up by the Newbury Weekly News and organised in the town by the Hungerford Volunteer Force (CHAIN), has been run successfully for many years and this year will be distributing over 2,000 parcels full of Christmas goodies.. Many thanks to Swift Couriers who delivered hundred of parcels to the Legion which were quickly distributed to " Santa's Elves" who took them out for delivery.
