A HALLOWE’EN event which took place in Ellesmere last month has raised hundreds for charity.

The fancy dress fundraiser, held at the Ellesmere Hotel in High Street, raised £500 for mental health charity MIND.

Charlotte Edwards and friends organised the successful event which included Rock ‘n’ Roll Bingo, which had everybody singing while marking their cards, plus a disco.

The winner for the best fancy dress costume was awarded to Kelsey Vermeulen who was dressed in a ‘distressed and bloodied’ bridal outfit.
