Apart from catching up on old times, there was a buffet and music provided by veteran Fleetwood DJ, Dave Scrivener.

The money is to be split three ways between the Fishermen’s Mission, the Goth Funnel Fund and Fleetwood Lifeboat. Leon O’Flaherty, one of the main organisers of the event, said: “We had a fantastic time and everyone enjoyed themselves.
“I’d like to thank all the businesses who donated prizes for the raffle and those who even gave us cash.”
