A bowls club raised more than £1,300 for a Basingstoke hospice.
Oakley Bowling Club made a generous donation to St Michael's Hospice, handing over £1,383 as proceeds from its weekly social bowls spoon drives in 2025.
These games are played on Monday afternoons throughout the outdoor bowls season and have become a routine event organised by a husband-and-wife team, Keith and Marion Bringes.

Every year, the proceeds from these sessions are tallied up and handed over to the Oakley Bowling Club's chosen charity, which in 2025 was St Michael's Hospice.
In addition to fundraising, the club is inviting people to try their hand at bowls at Oakley Bowling Club Open Day on Saturday, May 24.
The event will run from 10am until 4pm and is open for all ages.
Free coaching, a free club shirt and reduced fees for the first year.
