Shirley pub hosts fundraising weekend

Tuesday, July 29, 2008, 10:37

A popular pub is hosting a fun weekend to raise money for St Christopher's Hospice.

The action-packed extravaganza at the Shirley Inn, in Wickham Road, runs from Friday until Sunday.

Entertainment includes a 24-hour endurance darts competition, a 10-mile sponsored bike ride and a “human horse race”.

Dianne King, pub manager, experienced the excellent work of the hospice first hand when her husband and more recently her 22-year-old barman died of cancer.

She said: “The hospice does not charge for their excellent services and relies heavily on donations to keep going.”
