The Colchester branch of the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign would like to thank the people of Colchester for their generosity during our collection at the Co-op supermarket, in Peartree Road, which took place on August 22.

The total raised was £292.89. Most of this will be spent on the general work of the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign. For details, visit www.muscular-dystrophy.

We are most grateful to the staff and customers of the Co-op for their support.
