A CHARITY ball in Hook raised £4,000 for two causes.
The event, at Highfield Park, in Hook on June 6, was organised by sisters Louise Buckland, Karen Stokes and Mary Dempster raising an estimated £2,000 for Macmillan Cancer Support and £2,000 for St Michael’s Hospice.
Louise said: “We, like many others, have lost loved ones due to cancer. However, we also have close family who have managed to beat cancer. Our mum has been very lucky, she managed to beat it. We as a family wanted to give back to the charities that have helped us along the way.”
