A GROUP of friends who raise hundreds of pounds for charity every year have presented their latest donation to a service supporting children with special educational needs.
Just Friends consists of 20 women from the Spennymoor area who get together because they share similar interests.
This year, they held raffles and coffee mornings to raise £350 for the Durham Portage Service, which is a teaching programme offering home support to children aged up to four and their parents.
The service is operated by Durham County's education department and is based with the educational psychology service at Neville's Cross, Durham.
The group's donation will go towards buying Christmas presents for the 84 children being helped.
