An anonymous Good Samaritan is helping a raft of good causes by sending out envelopes stuffed with cash.

A cancer charity has become the latest to receive a windfall of over £1,000.

Penny Brohn UK, based in Bristol, received a white envelope through the post containing £1,060 in old £20 notes.

Others include Bristol Autism Support, Winston’s Wish, the Royal National Lifeboat Institution in Portishead, and Marie Curie in Bristol.

None of the donations has any indication of who or where the money has come from.

But the handwriting on this latest envelope received at the end of June is similar to one received by the RNLI earlier in the month.

Andrew Hufford, CEO of Penny Brohn UK, told What’s The Jam: “This donation was completely unexpected and we would like to thank whoever sent it in for their generosity.

“As a small charity, with no government funding, we rely on supporters who believe our work is important.

“We offer a toolbox of personalised cancer care and our team of experts, doctors, nutritionists, counsellors and more ensure that everyone living with cancer or its aftereffects feels better in mind, body and spirit.”

Supporters of the charity were touched by the donation.
