A firework display has resulted in £1,6084.98 being donated to the Douglas House respite centre appeal.

Bicester Round Tablers raised the amount from their event staged on Pingle field, off Oxford Road, Bicester, in November.

The centre, next door to Helen House, will cater for young adults.

Mr Fincham said: "We decided to donate the profits from the firework night to a named charity as we believe this helps the public identify with the event and its charitable purpose."

Mr Fincham added: "We hope to assist the hospice in the future."
