                     Dear Mr Pickwick,
                     Please accept this letter as a thank you for the most generous donation of f 1500, which we
                     have recently received from the Pickwick  Bicycle Club. lt was absolutely  fantastic to hear
                     about the history of the Club and some of the things the club get up to! Eccentric,  amusing
                     and so wonderfully British! We all really like the very smart attire too  -  especially  the hatl
                     This very kind donation  from the Pickwick  Bicycle Club will be used to help the work of
                     everyone  supporting cancer patients  on behalf of Macmillan  Cancer  Support, both in the
                     Macmillan  Centre  and in the wider local community  around Macclesfield.
                     The charity itself I am sure will acknowledge  this generous donation in due course,  once the
                     cheque has been collected by them from our centre.
                     On behalf of everyone  working with Macmillan  at East Cheshire  and especially  to all those
                     who know Janet, please  do pass on our most grateful  thanks to all those who have
                     contributed  to this donation  -  by paying fines or othenrvise!
                     The Club's kindness in thinking of Macmillan  is greatly  appreciated.
                     With very best wishes,
                     Yours sincerely,
                      d.v\o-t.  P.if .*-^-^s.-1
