REGULARS at a village pub have raised more than £2,000 for charity.

Over the past year the Cricketers pub, in Coxhoe, near Durham, held fundraising events, organised by landlady Shirley Armstrong. They included an exhibition of dolls houses, plus a cricket match. Others took part in the Great North Walk and Great North Run and darts matches.

The total raised was £2,124, which was split evenly between Cancer Research UK and the Palliative Care Fund.
