ILKLEY Pre-School has received a cheque for £100 from Yorkshire Building Society as a part of their Small Change, Big Difference scheme.

The money was used to used to take the children to the theatre to see ‘We’re going on a bear hunt’ at the King's Hall this week. The money paid for the staff’s tickets and half time treats.

The Small Change Big Difference scheme allows Yorkshire Building Society customers to donate to the Charitable Foundation the annual pence of interest from their savings or mortgage accounts. The average donation is less than 50p per year and the maximum is just 99p. But together, the small change from customers' accounts can make a big difference to the lives of others in local communities.
