The Old Railway Line Garden Centre has raised almost £900 for two good causes with a charity bingo night.

The garden centre, in Three Cocks, held the bingo evening on Friday, February 16.

The two charities that will benefit from the money are Be More Frank and Ewing’s Sarcoma Research Trust.

Be More Frank is a special named fund of the Grace Kelly Childhood Cancer Trust. Funds raised in Frank’s name provide financial assistance to families with a child diagnosed with cancer in Herefordshire, Powys, Monmouthshire, Worcestershire and Gloucestershire.

Ewing’s Sarcoma Research Trust is the leading charity dedicated to fighting primary bone cancer and is uniquely placed to make a difference through research, information, awareness and support.

Matt Lewis, Events Manager, expressed his joy at the success of the event, saying: “We are thrilled to announce that we’ve raised a total of £888, which will be split between our chosen charities of this year, Be More Frank and Ewing’s Sarcoma Research Trust.

“We extend our gratitude to all attendees who contributed to this wonderful cause through turning up and taking part in our half time raffle.

“We hope you had a fantastic evening, enjoying the homemade food and engaging bingo games. Congratulations to all our winners, who collectively claimed £210 worth of cash and voucher prizes!”

He added: “Supporting the local community is a fundamental part of our company values and we’re proud to be able to host these events with such a great community around us to turn up and join in to support too. We wouldn’t be able to raise as much as we do without our amazing family of loyal customers.”
