	Christian Aid Week - 9 to 15th May 2010 All the money has been counted and the total raised (including special events) amounts to £5,452, with an additional £693 to be reclaimed through the Gift Aid scheme. Special events for the week raised the following amounts:     - Coffee Morning    £426     - Dishwash              £180     - Yorkshire quiz      £72     - Quiz Aid              £324 A huge thank you to everyone who organised these events, to those who attended them and gave generously, and to the valiant band of people who delivered around 3,800 envelopes around the town... and then went back to collect them! Some interesting statistics (if you like that sort of thing):   - This year's collection was the lowest for three years, and 13% down on the figure for 2009;   - The proportion of envelopes returned was 42% of the total distributed, similar to last year;   - The average donation was £2-65, lower than for 2009 (£2-97), but slightly higher than for 2008. Perhaps the economic downturn has had a modest but perceptible effect on the generosity of the community, so far as Christian Aid is concerned, anyway.
