A MALVERN woman who has raised thousands of pounds for the Malvern Hills Foyer visited the youth homeless project last week to enjoy a tour and meet the residents.

Barbara Meddows, a retired teacher who lives in West Malvern has raised over £5,000 for the Foyer by making and selling pots of jam.

Foyer manager Jonathan Greenwood said: “We have been overwhelmed by the support Mrs Meddows has shown over a number of years and we wanted to say a big thank-you."

The Foyer provides accommodation for homeless young people aged 16-25 who have connections with Malvern and the surrounding area.
