The Noahs Ark darts team played host this week to Kevin Painter as part of their charity fund-raising darts week.

The amount raised will reach £400, and it will be divided between the St. Ormond's Street Children's Hospital and the Macmillan Nurses which is the Noahs Ark in-house charity.

The Noah's Ark is grateful to the various businesses and shops in the Ross area who kindly donated prizes to help with the fund raising. This was particularly generous in these very difficult trading times.

The resourcefulness, endeavour and tenacity of fund-raisers, very heartening too. So it is on this occasion, all credit should go to Tracy Hill for her efforts.
