A caring garage is helping Wells SOUP! support four more good causes – bringing the number helped to more than 80.

Bowley's of Westfield Road have match-funded Wells Independents' grant-giving lunch on Saturday, April 15 to the tune of £350. 

"We cut back on our advertising and now spend that money on supporting local charities," said the garage's co-owner Jason Tunnicliffe.

The four good causes who will all benefit from April 15's SOUP! are Wellspring Music, Wells Community Network, Wells Community Fridge and the Wells Group for the Visually Impaired.

The venue for SOUP is the Connect Centre from 1-2pm. All are welcome.

Wells Independents' Ross Young said: "We are incredibly proud that these four good causes will bring the number we have helped to raise much needed funds, and spread the word about their work, to more than 80. 

"We are still open to applications from any charity or project that benefits Wells and the surrounding area. If you are interested in applying please visit the website: www.wellsindependents.org/soup."
