Best thing I ever did: Eddy Darke, 12, Wells

1 min read

I got interested in fundraising when the charity visited my school. To raise money I have been writing my own newspaper, The Eddy News, which has interviews with my mum and dad. I typed them up on the computer and I've made six issues so far and raised 500 by selling them to family and friends. I have also sold a cookbook containing recipes given to me by my family and friends. My favourite recipe is "special pork". I would really like to be a journalist or a fundraiser when I am older.
