TAUNTON Labour Parliamentary candidate Martin Jevon was at the bingo hall last Friday – but not to try his luck at the numbers.
Mr Jevon joined the Mecca Bingo team in a fundraising evening for their chosen charity of the year Whizz-Kidz, which aims to help disabled children lead more independent lives.
The event raised £316 with more money set to be made towards the £2,500 target with a sponsored parachute jump planned for later in the year.
Mr Jevon said: “Whizz-Kidz is a fabulous charity and I’m delighted to support the Mecca team in their fundraising efforts.”
