Greenpark Quilters Group chose to hand over the £3000 generated by its 2019 exhibition to the Motor Neurone Disease Association in honour of Grace Graham.

Greenpark Quilters Group chairwoman Theresa Hebden said: “Every two years we have an exhibition with a sales table where our lovely pieces of work can be purchased with all the proceeds going to various charities. With different sales tables throughout the year we have raised £3000.

“This year it was decided that all our proceeds would go to Motor Neurone Disease as one of our members, a lovely lady called Grace, who unfortunately died of motor neuron disease.”

The money will be used to fund research into the disease.
