A CHARITY cooking event raised £2,587 for Butterwick Hospice.
Matthew Brown and his ten would-be chefs spent months preparing the fundraising meal for 90 guests.
Preparation ranged from menu design, evaluating ingredients, as well as tireless attempts to get the dishes perfect.
The students all attend Matty's Kitchen, which has been running at the Arc in Stockton, since 2004.
The course has proved a huge success and many of its members have been attending since the start.
This was the third charity night the group has held, and they have raised more than £5,000 in total.
