Shrewsbury charity receives second anonymous £10k donation

An arts and wellbeing charity has received a second anonymous donation of £10,000 as part of a major fundraising campaign.

The Hive, in Shrewsbury, has supported almost 50,000 children and young people through more than 200 different arts projects over 19 years.

However, the charity launched a £50,000 fundraising campaign in July to cover increased demand and rising costs, in order to enable its survival.

Thanks to the anonymous donation, the campaign has now reached £29,000, meaning the charity is more than half of the way to reaching its target.
