A charity bingo event featuring 80s music raised hundreds of pounds in aid of Halesworth's Pear Tree Fund.

More than 80 guests attended the event hosted by The Queen's Head, where £680.50 was raised for the charity.

The event saw conventional bingo numbers swapped out for classic '80s tracks.

The Queen’s Head's owner, Kate Wood, said: “We are delighted that we are able to continue supporting the Pear Tree Fund, which receives very little government funding, yet does the most amazing work for patients with life-limiting illnesses and their families and carers.

"In addition to this, the charity also supports the recently bereaved, people with mental health support needs, and more.

"They’re an integral part of our community and the work they do is breath-taking."

The bingo night is the latest charitable venture from the Queen's Head, part of a series of initiatives including fashion shows, book sales, food tasting quizzes, golf days, and even marathons.

Ms Wood is eager to push on and reach £10,000.

The Pear Tree Fund's founder, Jane Edwards, said: “We are incredibly grateful to the Queen’s Head for the fantastic support they continue to show to the charity.

"We are delighted that the pub will also be converting their restaurant into a full size charity second-hand bookshop from March 18-20 for the charity.

"It’s certainly an unusual idea that has got people talking and really will be quite an undertaking by Kate and her team at the pub.”
