A 92-year-old widow touched the hearts of staff at a dog rescue centre with a note she sent after making a sweet donation to their charity. Last month Cwmbran 's Doris Cheadle gifted Hope Rescue in Llanharan £100 she'd raised by "baking cakes and making jam."
But it was the message she sent along with the money which also caught people's attention. It read: "I am gifting £100 which I have raised through baking and making preserves. I am 92 years of age and love dogs, although I am too old to have one now. I hope this helps."
In fact, the note affected those working at the centre so much they "couldn't not share it" on social media. And since that post appeared on the charity's Facebook page it's been liked more 2,000 times by dog lovers all over the country who were also deeply moved by the gesture.
