Patients and staff from a doctors' surgery took part in an afternoon tea event to raise funds for cancer research.

Albany House Surgery in Barbourne held afternoon tea on Tuesday (August 13) to raise money for cancer charity Breast Cancer Now.

Practice manager, Deb Gregory, said: "It was busy all afternoon, so it went really well.

"I haven't counted the amount raised yet but it looks to be a good amount for Breast Cancer Now.

"It's a charity that's close to my heart, and the whole practice was keen to be involved."

Albany House staff and members of the surgery's Patient Participation Group helped serve tea and home made cakes throughout the afternoon, with people across the community donating treats for the event.

Miss Gregory said: "Our patient participation group got involved and were a big help.

"We had a lot of patients and elderly members of the community attending, and it was great to network with them and get everyone together."
