The Mayor’s Benevolent Fund issues Christmas Vouchers to persons who are living alone and are aged 80 years and over and live in the town of Sudbury. Application forms can be obtained from the Town Hall and must be returned by 29 November. The £35 vouchers can be used for food at local supermarkets. Please make this known to eligible people you know. If you are eligible, but not in need, it is suggested that you might wish to apply for a voucher and buy food for Storehouse. The fund is financed by a trust set up a few centuries ago.
