WEIGHT watchers raised £350 to help crack cancer.
Each week since the March slimmers from the Worsley class of Weight Watchers bought tickets for a fruit basket raffle donated by Atherton fruit and veg merchants J & G Taylor & Son.
The proceeds were boosted by a £30 donation from PS Meats.
The raffle was the idea of Mosley Common man Roy Lilly (third from left) who is pictured with Joy Preston, Mary Bratt, Lynda Nicholson, Roy Lilly and Taylor's representative Thomas McLoughlin.
Mr Lilly has raised over £3,000 for Christie Hospital and lost 8-stones in four years since joining the slimmers' group. He began fund-raising after losing his wife and father through cancer.
