More than 7,000 visitors to Long Sutton St Mary’s Church flower festival helped to raise £12,800 – ten per cent of which has been donated to the Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire Air Ambulance.

Father Jonathan Sibley and churchwardens Ivor Peacock and Teresa Watts recently handed over a cheque to Faye Nam.
Father Jonathan said: “We were really pleased with the support we received for the festival and I would like to thank people for their generosity.
“We always donate ten percent of the profits to charity and this year we chose the air ambulance.”
