Refreshment was close at hand when a football team finished a half-marathon to raise £1,000 for charity.

Centenary Park FC had organised the race in aid of Cancer Research UK to start and finish at Buckley's Bar, in Streatfield Road, Harrow.

The 13.1-mile route took players across Harrow and Brent, through areas such as Kenton, Brent Park and Alperton before their return to the Irish pub.

The Stanmore club, which was founded in 2011 and is in its fourth season in the Middlesex County Football league, took part in a number of fundraisers throughout the year - raising more than £400 for the club and Cancer Research in December.
