“All over the UK there are children who have to cope with sickness, disability or disadvantage. It’s tough. Really tough. We provide practical, tangible help that makes an immediate difference to those children and their families.” That’s what Variety, children’s charity does and to support this noble cause, Mecca Bingo stepped in with a massive donation!The whole even was publicized with the help of Rebecca Pow.
Rebecca Pow, MP for Taunton Deane paid a visit to Mecca Bingo in Taunton to receive a cheque for a whopping £250k, which has been collected nationally, purposely for this popular charity.
Rebecca said: "I want to commend everyone at Mecca Bingo, both staff and players for the incredible efforts they have put in to raise a huge amount of money for a vital charity to help our children.
"I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to the Taunton venue which included calling a game of bingo.
"Bingo is not only great fun, it's also a fantastic social outlet for some people in our communities that also helps to keep the brain active and stimulated."
