A cheque for £367.86 has boosted the Rebecca Delap Fund, which aims to provide a motorised wheelchair for a local handicapped child.
Rebecca, six, has a condition which means her muscles do not develop, but continues to attend Greenland Community Infant School, at South Moor, near Stanley.
The community is well on the way to raising £9,000 needed for the motorised chair.
The latest cash was the balance of the now-closed John Wilson Home Care Fund, which aimed to improve home care for those who needed it in the community.
The cheque was received by the late Mr Wilson's daughter, Gail, deputy headteacher at the school and trustee of the Rebecca Delap Fund.
