Staff and customers at the Mecca Bingo club in the Carmathen Road branch in Swansea set out this year to raise £2000 for Marie Curie Cancer Care, who are Mecca’s charity of the year. However, their activities throughout the year, which included holding Blooming Great Tea Party and taking part in the Great Daffodil Appeal, actually enabled them to more than double their target and raise just over £4000!
Richard Burke-Lloyd, the club manage, was full of praise for his staff and customers saying, “It’s inspiring to see how generous people have been especially given how difficult this year has been financially for many.
“Our success is without doubt down to the members of the team around me and to our customers. Everyone has been dedicated to doing their bit to raise money for Marie Curie Cancer Care. We just wouldn’t have achieved this with- out them.”
