A Bolton takeaway has been inspired by this year's Children in Need to raise money for the youngsters of Gaza. Chicky's Chicken and Shakes, based on Higher Swan Lane, is known for its charity work supporting organisations helping those in war torn Ukraine. This will be the second year the business will be holding a fundraiser for children in need in Gaza.

Until Sunday money from all orders placed at Chicky's takeaway will go to support One Nation Charity. Azher Latif from the business said: "As in all conflicts it’s the innocent who suffer the most and sadly the children who in this case are at the forefront of that suffering." Azher said the deaths of children was 'truly heartbreaking'.

And added: "An old proverb comes to mind ‘ better to light a candle that to curse the darkness ‘. "We also have Palestine merchandise available ranging from pin badges wrist bands scarves and hoodies - with all proceeds going to One Nation charity. "Please come and visit Chicky's enjoy a meal while supporting a good cause.

All monies raised by Chicky's will be matched by Azher..
