As well as the parties, backpacks etc a donation of £1,000 was made from the Appeal for the benefit of young people and children in Zagare, a small town in the north of Lithuania.
The aim initially was to help Lithuania Link (a UK based Charity) meet their target of £1500 to fund the exchange trip for Simona and Tomas. As they achieved this without Sunshine Appeal support it was felt that the sum raised could be used for the benefit of other young people in Zagare as well as Tomas and Simona. (They are President and ex-President of the Youth Club there.)
Lithuania Link intend to administer the donation in a way that will allow a large number of children and young people of Zagare to have a treat of some kind. An overnight trip to the seaside has been suggested by them or something of that ilk. They will be informing us what they plan to arrange and will probably ask Simona and Tomas for their ideas.
The following was agreed with Lithuania Link:-
1) The donation to be administered by Lithuania Link.
2) The donation to be for the direct benefit of children and young people in Zagare.
2a) An amount of £100 each be available for Tomas and Simona during their visit to
Cumbria /UK, to purchase treats or educational items.
2b) The remainder to be used for activities and items usually unavailable to
young people and children from Zagare.
3) Discussion with Sunshine Appeal organisers prior to 2b proceeding for acceptance of
proposals.
A duplicate cheque for the amount was presented to Simona and Tomas in Vilnius with best wishes from all contributors to the Sunshine Appeal.

That's fantastic.
If I was Simona or Thomas I'd keep my spending money and buy stuff when I got home again!!!

Im not sure I should tell you this but............... Tomas was very keen to get to NEXT in Princes St as he had seen ............wait for it............... A UNION JACK wallet in the NEXT in Carlisle but didn`t buy it at the time
Thankfully (PHEWEEE) there weren`t any left.
There is a danger he found something at Manchester Airport as a substitute mind you.
Will keep everyone posted when Lithuania Link have got some ideas for what to do for kids in Zagare.
