Community-minded pub locals have raised more than £1,000 for Prostate Cancer Research.
Customers of The Stag Inn, on Cowes Road, raised the money from a series of quizzes organised over the past year.
Landlord and landlady, Matt and Deanna Westwood, said: “We’re immensely proud our locals who came together to support such a worthy cause. The quizzes, which became a regular event at the pub, not only provided entertainment but also served as a platform for raising awareness and funds for Prostate Cancer Research.
“Following one of our customer’s diagnosis of the disease a couple of years ago, the locals showed their unwavering support by generously donating in collection buckets during each quiz night. Their contributions, no matter how big or small, collectively made a significant impact, culminating in the impressive total of more than £1,000.
“We are proud to be part of such a caring group of people.”
The funds raised will be donated to a leading Prostate Cancer Research organisation.
