OLD Kilpatrick's Ladies Bowling Club held a fundraising “Pink Day!”afternoon for Breast Cancer Now last week.

The ladies, dressed head to toe in pink to support the charity, raised a total of £863.

Forty-five club members and their friends and family turned out to support the cause which was held at the clubhouse on Station Road in Old Kilpatrick.

The club were also joined by bowling groups from Clydebank and Dumbarton.

As well as playing bowls, the ladies raised money through the sale of sweets, tablet and handmade painted cards.

There was also a raffle hamper up for grabs and an afternoon tea with all the proceeds going towards the charity.

Pauline Kirkpatrick, the club's treasurer, said: “We had a great success and everyone had a good time. The sun didn't really come out but at least it stayed dry.”

Breast Cancer Now are one of the largest breast cancer research charities in the UK and the money raised by the bowling club will go directly towards funding of new developments in their breakthrough research.

The club also hold two bingo nights for different charities in winter and have supported organisations such as Erskine Care Homes and The British Heart Foundation in the past.
