FOSCOTE private hospital in Banbury has raised £900 for Breast Cancer Awareness.

The hospital, in Hightown Road, started the collection at Banbury Canal Day and continued fundraising through October.

A stall near the Italian market on Canal Day attracted a steady stream of visitors, despite the wind and rain, and many people took part in competitions - name the Teddy, guess the weight of the cake, and a balloon competition.

The lucky winner of the Teddy was Faith Humphrey, pictured above, who correctly guessed the bear's name as Seth.

Neil Webb, executive director at the Foscote, said: "We were delighted with the number of visitors to the stand and the amount of interest shown in the hospital.

"I am pleased we were able to support Breast Cancer Awareness, the charity chosen by the hospital staff."

The Foscote is part of BMI Healthcare, a group of 47 acute care hospitals around the UK.
