CHEQUES for £200 each were presented by the street fair sub-committee of Watchet Coastal Community Team to Quantock Foodbank and St Margaret’s Hospice.
The money was raised from an event held in the Spice Merchant restaurant attended by Watchet Street Fair market stallholders and friends.
A final donation to the foodbank has also been made from the now-closed Kilve Stores of the remaining stock valued at about £380, with half of the value covered by a resident.
Foodbank manager Marlene Mason said: “It was marvellous to receive such a gift, yet so sad to know it marked the end of a wonderful resource in every way for the community.
“Kilve Stores was the beating heart of Kilve community and beyond, and will be greatly missed.”
