A Gloucestershire blood cancer charity hosted a networking day for business at The Beaufort Polo Club and raised more than £20,000.

Patrons Laurence and Jackie Llewelyn-Bowen and more than 150 business people came together in support of local blood cancer patients and their families. 

Linc Charity funds clinical psychologists to help patients and their loved ones navigate the impact of cancer, clinical trial nurses to support patients through trials that could benefit them further, and offers financial support after diagnosis for items such as childcare, rent costs, or alternative pain management.  

Guests watched polo matches and enjoyed afternoon tea. 

Sponsors included Meliora Renovations, The Queens Hotel Cheltenham, and British Bespoke Auctions.  Prizes were given generous local businesses, including HMA Tax, Richard George Tailoring and Feather Cotswold Cottages.
