A COFFEE morning has raised £870, which has been donated to Coleford's Children Opportunity Centre.

Mike Parry and Friends held the fundraiser at St Briavels Pavilion which adds to the tens of thousands of pounds he has raised over the last 20 years for local charities and causes.

In a letter to the group, joint manager at the centre, Hayley Badman said: "The generous donation Michael Parry and Friends have raised will go towards the refurbishment of our multi-sensory room. The equipment we have is in need of updating and modernising. The room is used daily and loved by all of the children. We once again thank the group for supporting the centre."
