(Do people really do that?) Anyway, here are some of the fantastic local people and organisations who’ve been involved with The Echo Breakfast Show this week:

  • On Monday, we crossed live to The Hogs Back Brewery in Tongham and found out that real ale is the real deal! Find out how to sample their range of beers on a tour of your own at their website.
  • Tuesday’s show heard from The Lion Brewery in Ash, recently voted the Pub of the Year. Find out more about their atmosphere, facilities and accommodation by calling 01252 650486 or clicking over to their site.
  • On Thursday morning, I had a chat with Louise Adams from Yateley. Her son Charlie suffers from cerebral palsy which prevents him from walking without a special wheeled framework. An operation in the States could change all of this – sadly though, it doesn’t come cheap. Discover more about this brilliant young boy and how you can really help change his life for the better by visiting the Charlie’s Challenge Step by Step website.
  • Sherie Williams Ellen joined Chris on Friday’s breakfast show to talk about the work of the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance. The charity has flown over 2,700 missions and saved countless lives but is reliant upon the generosity of the public. However, this need not necessarily mean cash donations; Sherie revealed how your old clothing could raise vital funds for the service. Find out more about the Bag It Up campaign on the official website, or check out the Air Ambulance’s homepage.

If you missed any or all of the above, then return to the Echo website soon – highlights are on their way!
