These funds will support two causes: Purple Oak, which will use its share to develop a sensory garden at one of its respite centres, and Girlguiding Andover, which will support up to 20 girls from low-income backgrounds for a full year of activities.

Highlights from the AGM included the presentation of cheques to the two charities.

The evening also featured an awards ceremony recognising the most impressive floats and walking groups, based on 7,000 public votes.
