A LAW student has raised hundreds of pounds in memory of her grandmother for a charity which provides special care equipment for children.
Helen Clark, who is from Gosforth but is studying at Durham University, devotes much of her spare time to raising money for Newcastle's Royal Victoria Infirmary Tiny Lives charity.
The 22-year-old said: "Many times before she died, my grandmother talked about the work of the charity and said that if she ever won a lot of money she would donate at least a quarter of it to Tiny Lives."
She has successfully persuaded Springs health club, in Newcastle, where she works, part-time, to host a fundraising fancy dress party with free buffet to raise money for an incubator at the RVI.
The event will take place on Friday, August 10. Telephone 0191-214 5550 for more information.
