Liberty Harper, from Hebron, sent an email to all residents to let them know she’d be calling last Sunday afternoon.

Her mum, Suzi, said: “Liberty was very keen to make her own contribution to the fundraising for the Ukrainian refugees, particularly the children she has seen on the TV.

“She was also inspired by the blue and yellow hearts outside St James’ Church in Morpeth.

“There are 35 houses in Hebron and the girls were overwhelmed with the support they received. They raised an incredible £235.50!”
