A weekend of fundraising at a pub has raised more than £2,800 for charity.
The Foresters Arms, in London Street, hosted a packed programme of events in the first weekend of October, including a Macmillan Coffee Morning and a charity golf day, with funds going to the Countess of Brecknock.
The golf day was organised by the Foresters Arms Golf Society and featured 75 raffle prizes and an auction.
In a post on Facebook, the pub wrote: "We thank all those that contributed, sponsored, bought tickets, entertained and enjoyed the fantastic afternoon. "
On Friday, October 2, landlady Anne Watkins and her friend Julie Duke raise £162 hosting the MacMillan Coffee Morning with help from Kayleigh Cutting.
Anne said: "Gorgeous homemade treats were made as usual by Greg Lloyd and Andy Duke."
On Sunday, October 4, Paul Jude Wilson and Jake Ward entertained customers at the pub while the golf society played for the charity.
