A charity got an early Christmas present this week, receiving over £1,700 for children and young adults with life limiting conditions.
Essex-based charity The Dream Factory held their first Christmas draw with new mascot Olivia, at the iCandy store in Epping High Street on Wednesday (16 December).
Winning prizes at the festive event included a Samsung smart television, a giant Christmas hamper and a magnum of Moet champagne.
The Dream Factory charity founder Avril Mills said: “We are totally delighted to have raised £1,700. Everything was donated so all the money goes to the charity enabling us to provide more dreams for more children.”
