A COFFEE morning is being held at Steeton to raise funds for Martin House children's hospice.

The March 21 event is the latest in a series staged by villager Lynda Corser, her family and friends.

Over the years, the events have raised thousands of pounds.

Proceeds go to Martin House at Boston Spa in tribute to the care received there by Mrs Corser's late nephew, Andrew Pratt, who died in 1998 at the age of 12.

The event – themed on Easter and butterflies, a symbol for children's hospices – will include refreshments, cakes, crafts, a tombola, raffle and Easter egg game.

The coffee morning is from 10am to noon at St Stephen's Church Hall.

Anyone able to donate items to sell or for prizes is asked to contact Mrs Corser on 01535 678698.
