RESIDENTS in the region are continuing to give their support to Ukrainian people.

The Rotary Club of Denbigh recently grouped together to man a day of collecting monetary contributions for Ukraine at the Aldi store at Denbigh.

A brilliant total of £760 was collected on the day, which was match-funded by the "Sumup" mobile card reader company, therefore giving a grand total of £1,520.00 towards the British Red Cross fund for Ukraine.

A rotary club spokesman said: "Our grateful thanks go out to all who contributed and to the management and staff of the Aldi store at Denbigh for their kind cooperation in this event."

There will be stalls, face painting, a raffle with prizes, balloon modelling and a special raffle with an all-inclusive week's stay courtesy of Warner Leisure.

All proceeds will go to the Disaster Emergency Committee.
