Wings Appeal Needs You

Disappointed Ken is now relying on a strong street collection to make up a respectable total.
He said: "Even at the last minute we are hoping for people to step forward to volunteer on Saturday - if anyone wants to come forward they are more than welcome. It can be for however long they want. Some people do three or four hours, but we are just relying on anybody to do what they can."
