A HAMPSHIRE restaurant is cooking up hundreds of pounds to help families faced with the devastating news that their child has cancer.
Verveine Fishmarket restaurant in Milford on Sea has thrown its backing behind the Daily Echo’s Every Step Appeal, to raise £40,000 to help children and young people battling the killer disease.
They have already raised more than £600 for Clic Sargent by adding a £1 donation to the end of every bill and now all those donations will be heading to the appeal fund.
The Daily Echo has joined forces with the charity to raise the £40,000 in 12 months, to ensure ten families faced with a devastating diagnosis at Southampton General Hospital.
