Hi Syd Just to comment on an amazing man we have living in Newton Aycliffe – Honest John. Making donations to charities and helping groups and care homes etc. I wrote to Honest John to see if he could help two groups who need equipment and he has kindly given £350 each. The two groups are run by men who work full time but give their spare time to teach children. Kevin Mitchell teaches Woodham Tigers at Chi Taekwondo Woodham at Woodham Community centre on a Tuesday night at 6pm-7pm also an older class on a Sunday and Kevin Atkinson teaches Gymnastics on a Friday night 6.15pm-7.45pm. I am truly amazed by the kindness of Honest John and I wish to  thank him publicly through our newspaper. Susanne Mckerr
