A CHARITY has revealed Warrington residents donated £36,800 following a tsunami in the Indian Ocean which killed almost 250,000 people.

Ten years on from the disaster on Boxing Day 2004, Christian Aid is marking the anniversary by launching Tsunami: 10 years after the wave, an online exhibition that features work – including previously unpublished images.

The new online exhibition explains how Christian Aid spent £45 million, the majority donated by the UK public, over five years – rebuilding homes, providing trauma therapy and supporting people to get back to work.
