Battle Lions help local charities

Julia Chapman, from the Lions, said: “It was an exceptional sum and our chocolate father Christmases, which were in pubs and clubs in Battle and surrounding villages ,raised a profit of almost £400.

“We would like to thank all of those who gave so generously to our charity.
