A FUNDRAISING event at a Locking Stumps pub raised around £2,000 in only one day.

Leanne Clare and her partner Liam Williams held the fundraiser at the Turf and Feather pub last Saturday in aid of the Still Birth and Neonatal Death Society (SANDS). She said: "It was a brilliant day.

"We are still counting but it looks as though we have got about £2,000 so we are really pleased."

The couple held the event in memory of their late daughter. Activities included a bouncy castle, barbecue and karaoke.

She added: "We would just like to thanks everybody for all their help, particularly all those who helped with sponsorship and other matters."
