More than 100 people attended the event and a host of local businesses boosted the fundraising efforts by donating prizes for the bingo and raffle.

Amy Bristow, from Flinders Founders, said: “We got some fantastic donations from the shops and we had people of all ages come along to support us, ranging from two years to 60-plus.”

Money raised from the bingo goes to the Teen Park while the refreshment and cake sales cash goes to Macmillan. Our picture shows some of the supporters.
