A cancer charity said it is "immensely grateful" after a table top sale raised just over £1,000 to support its services.

The sale at Storth Village Hall raised £1,000.66 for the Rosemere Cancer Foundation.

The event saw crafters selling their goods alongside those wanting to sell toys and bric-a-brac.

The Dallam Rosemere Cancer Foundation Supporters Group, who coordinated the event, boosted proceeds through selling refreshments, a raffle and a tombola.

Yvonne Stott, community and events fundraiser for Rosemere Cancer Foundation, said: "We're immensely grateful to our Dallam members for putting on another hugely successful event in our name.

"The table top sale was very busy with those both wanting to earn and save a bit money in these difficult times.

"In serving the community, it also helped us tremendously by generating a great donation towards our projects to help local cancer patients."

Funds raised support the charity's mission to provide world-class cancer treatments and services throughout South Cumbria and Lancashire.

The charity provides this care at Rosemere Cancer Centre, which is the region’s specialist cancer treatment and radiotherapy centre at the Royal Preston Hospital, and also at another eight hospital cancer units across the two counties, including those at the Westmorland and Furness General Hospitals.
