The crafty ladies from the Walpole Art & Craft Club presented a cheque for £860 to Laurence Morlaas the representative from Queen Elizabeth Hospital’s Macmillan Centre.

The money was raised at the club’s MacMillan coffee morning.

A club spokesman said: “Thank you to all members who volunteered on the day and those who donated cakes, books, craft items and prizes for the raffle and tombola. And a big thank you goes to all those who attended and helped us raise so much money, we thank you all for your support.”
