A COUNTY children's charity has received a cash boost from a Kington group.

The Noah’s Ark Trust was presented with a £500 cheque from Kington Horse Show and Agricultural Society by its retiring president Evan Jones, from Walton.

The trust, which was founded in 1998, provides grief support to young people and children bereaved in Herefordshire and Worcestershire for free, and relies on donations to cover its costs.
