The day was organised by Sophie Morris, who, after being diagnosed with a brain tumour, has now raised more than £60,000 for the charity over the past two years.

Stuart Clements, manager at Slepe Hall, said: “It was a cracking day, and great to get involved with it again.”

The event featured a coffee morning, mini fete and coin carpet, and coincided with Bandana Day; a national awareness day for brain tumours.

Children from Westfield Junior School and Eastfield Infant and Nursery School wore the headwear for the day, raising some £900 between them, as did postmen serving St Ives and surrounding areas.

The Brain Tumour Charity aims to fund vital research into early diagnosis as well as providing support for families and their carers.
