Jackie Hannaford of Kilkhampton and her helpers have been collecting 'Treats for Troops' which will be sent to soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan. The group were at the Co-op, Bude last week and this week have been at Morrisons in Bude and Somerfield in Holsworthy. Due to the large amount of mail sent to troops at Christmas, the supplies collected by Jackie will be sent slightly later than planned and will reach the soldiers just after Christmas. Jackie said: "It should boost their morale after Christmas and should cut down the volume of stuff going out on Christmas."
