Starlight have won the vote to be Smooth Radio London's Charity of the year!
This follows a weekend of frantically rounding up support from all concerned, as Starlight dipped 1% behind as the final hurdle loomed at midnight last Sunday!
A day of emails, promotions and generally badgering listeners until they voted meant that the poll closed at midnight with Starlight winning by 2%.
Today it was confirmed they had won!
It will make a huge addition to the finances available to them to make dreams and wishes come true for critically and terminally ill children, and here at MTJR we want to say a HUGE thank you to all our listeners who voted, to all our friends who we got out of bed at dawn on Sunday to vote - and just as they were drifting off to sleep after lunch, we called them again to make sure they had!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
