A MAD March raffle at White Stuff in The Borough has raised more than £550 for the 40 Degreez youth centre.

Trustees and young people at the youth centre in Dogflud Way have thanked those who helped raise the funds, which will be matched by the White Stuff Foundation which aims to 'make the world a little happier' by supporting disadvantaged children and young people.

Eve Baker, of 40 Degreez, said: "We were blessed with a beautiful sunny day which brought lots of people into town.

"White Stuff customers were so generous and bought lots of raffle tickets as well as buying bread and other goodies from the bake stall.

"The amazing result would not have been possible without the kind support of local businesses and for that we are very grateful."
