The charities, which are run by Basildon Mayor David Harrison, accepted a £1,150 cheque from the Wickford school
Headteacher Mat Harper said “It has been a privilege to be able to support the Mayor, and the worthwhile causes he champions, over the past two years.”
Mr Harrison thanked the school for all their efforts and said: “This is the second year that Beauchamps High School has supported my fundraising, and it is very much appreciated by not only myself, but by the children it helps.”
