Airlifted patient Ross Hollett raised a fantastic £528 at his bingo night. He presented his donation to paramedic Stuart Croft who helped to rescue Ross when he fell off a harbour wall in Padstow. 2. Peter Hill and Martin Talbot visited 100 pubs whilst on holiday in Cornwall and raised £360 from publicans and customers – it was a tough job but someone had to do it! 3. Moor Harmony Ladies Barbershop Chorus hit all the right notes to raise £150. 4.
