Shopping vouchers from Sainsbury's and a cuddly meerkat toy were also up for grabs.

Organiser Joyce Auld was surprised by the turnout. "Headway is a great cause," she said. "Our members voted on who they would like to support this year and Headway came out from six other charities.

"We haven't counted it all in yet, but I would hope we could raise more than £100."

The club meets up on the second and fourth Thursday of each month at the Churchdown Methodist Hall.
