MORE than £6,000 was raised at a charity night in aid of two good causes.
Martin and Andy Tobin put on the event at Andover Central Club for Alzheimer's UK and Kidney Research UK.
Together with their family and friends, they put on a night which involved a raffle, auction and musical entertainment.
The evening, held on September 27, was a great success with a total of £6,600 being raised. The final amount has recently been totted up and cheques presented - with £5,000 going to Alzheimer's UK and £1,600 to Kidney Research.
Martin and Andy said they were overwhelmed by the amount raised by everyone involved.
Martin said: "We would like to thank our family, friends and local businesses for their time, raffle prizes and auction lots.
"This event highlighted the generosity of our local community and we are grateful for everyone's help to raise such a great amount for two charities that are very close to our hearts.
"We would also like to thank Jane Robinson, Shaun Bessant and Nuno Presley for their very enjoyable musical entertainment and also thanks to the staff of the Central Club."
