“Outside on the terraces there will be greyhound racing as usual, with free entry for this special night, where we hope to raise another good sum through donations and a raffle for which we have had some brilliant prize donations.
“Roy will be signing copies of his recently released autobiography, ‘Life’s a Gamble’ with proceeds again going to St Clare’s Hospice. Our thanks go to him for his efforts likewise restaurant chain Miller & Carter who will be laying on a buffet free of charge.
“St Clare’s is such a worthy local cause and with such high-profile guests lending their support we would hope to raise a five-figure sum on the night.”
