Lin raises £850 in two hours for Cancer Support These takings would please any high street retailer. It certainly delighted Lin Slaughter when she discovered that this was the total income from the recent sale of her craft items. Although the money was collected in such a short time, it would be impossible to calculate the number of Lin hours which had gone into producing the myriad of attractive decorations and novelties on sale.
