A coffee morning is being held at Steeton today to raise funds for Martin House children’s hospice.

The event is the latest in a series staged by villager Lynda Corser, her family and friends.

Proceeds go to Martin House, at Boston Spa, in tribute to the care received there by Mrs Corser’s nephew Andrew Pratt who died in 1998 at the age of 12.

The event is at St Stephen's Church Hall, from 10am to noon.
