"I would like to thank the West Club for hosting the event.
"We have raised over £1,000 and there is still some more money to be collected.
"Suicide Awareness and Support Group do invaluable work in our community on a daily basis. Without this support so many families would be left in limbo at a very difficult time.
“They rely solely on donations so that they can carry on their very important work.
“I want to thank everyone who attended the fundraiser night and helped promote their cause which is a big problem in our community.”
