I AM a member of the Rex Players who was privileged to be in the recent, extremely successful, live show ‘Going for Gold’ at the Rex Cinema.

The proceeds from the raffle, a magnificent £800, were donated to the League of Friends of Wareham Hospital in memory of my wife Sheila, another member who recently passed away.

I would like to thank the Rex Players for the magnanimous gesture and to thank them, and the people of Wareham, for the tremendous support I, and my family, received through a very sad time.

NELSON TOWNSEND, North Street, Wareham
