Thoughtful Argus readers have seen their generosity come to fruition.

Kind-hearted donations to The Argus Appeal have funded the purchase of two new pallet truck moving machines for a charity.

The machines were donated to Fareshare, an organisation that supports communities by redistributing 20,000 tonnes of food per year that would otherwise have been thrown away.

Nathan Au from the charity is pictured with the two new machines.

The Argus Appeal has been running for nearly 55 years and aims to give assistance to those in need throughout our community.

It provides funds for a variety of benefits and causes, in particular disadvantaged children, the elderly, the vulnerable, people with disabilities and groups, charities or organisations.

The appeal aims to raise £200,000 each year.
