FUNDRAISERS in Bolton handed of a cheque for £3,700 to Derrian House Childrens' Hospice in Chorley.

The Bolton 'Greenleaves' branch of Foresters - a financial services organisation which also raises cash for charities - raised the cash by selling raffle tickets for a big draw.

The cash will be used by the hospice to subsidise its running costs.

Bilkiss Lakhi, vice president of the branch, said: "It was an incredible amount of money to raise and we were very happy to hand it over."
