Traders and sports fans united to raise money for a hospice.

Following the traditions of previous years, the South Harrow Traders Association nominated St Luke’s Hospice in Kenton as their charity of choice and hosted a charity cricket match to help raise money.

Families, friends and traders joined in the fun, having a knockabout in the local park and then got together for a meal at the Golden Sip in South Harrow.

A cheque was presented to the hospice on Friday, after Tim Todhunter, fundraising team leader at St Luke’s Hospice, gave members a tour of the hospice and an insight into its history and workings.
