A table collection, raffle and predict-the-score contest yielded £1,401, which was topped up by Dennyside to £1,500. Well-filled charity jars further boosted the day's takings.
Richard Krupa, captain for the day, presented the cheque and thanked St Barnabas for all the wonderful care they give to people with life-limiting illnesses.
