Foodies who flocked to Clitheroe’s Food Festival made the event into a bean-feast for charity Rosemere Cancer Foundation by visiting its Castle Street stall and donating £813.67.

The stall was staffed by a team of five volunteers, who ran a fundraising raffle and tombola. First prize in the raffle was a luggage set donated by Pete and Christine Gainsley, proprietors of Castle Street’s Purdie Oak luggage and gift shop.
