HUNDREDS of struggling families have been helped across Deeside in just over one week. Back on January 30, Connah s Quay councillor Bernie Attridge said he was moved to tears at the generosity of people in his community after dozens jumped on board to help his appeal. Cllr Attridge launched an appeal for food donations after two struggling families required a little extra help. Within hours, more than enough donations were dropped off on his doorstep, which allowed him to help more families in need. Due to the huge response, Cllr Attridge managed to secure a premises in his ward so he could continue to reach out to people struggling in these unprecedented times.
