A pub in Netherfield has so far raised a whopping £21k for two charities after carrying out a number of events.
It’s Inn The Bank on Victoria Road have been fundraising for the Beeston Ward stroke unit at Nottingham City Hospital and Notts homeless shelter Emmanuel House.
Previous events include skydiving, with landlady Nicola Murphy taking part, and a cycle ride to Skegness.
They held their latest fundraiser yesterday with landlord David Murphy DJing a 13-hour Valentine’s Day disco to raise cash for the worthy causes.
The mammoth Valentine’s Day disco went down a storm with locals, who could request a song for a £1 donation during the unbroken stint.
There was frenzied dancing in the bar during the afternoon, with one regular requesting a song by popular Manchester act New Order that got people out of their seats and dancing.
Requests for Frank Sinatra, David Bowie and Human League also helped top up the total.
Landlady Nicola Murphy said: “We raised over £500 yesterday with more pledges coming in. The stroke unit will receive £277 and Emmanuel House are getting £264 after yesterday’s events.”
