Annual charity day attracts crowds to West Bromwich pub
An annual charity day which was set up by a mother has brought in yet more money for a hospital which cares for her son.
Hundreds turned out for the event at the Gough Arms pub in West Bromwich, which has grown bigger by the year.
Entertainment included bouncy castles, trampolining and face painting - with this year's event raising £1,145 for Birmingham Children's Hospital.
The charity day has become a regular event and was the sixth time it had been held at the pub.
More than £10,000 has been raised over the years for the hospital, which provides ongoing care for Kelly Wiggetts-Clinton's son Cruze, aged seven, who was diagnosed with two holes in his heart when he was 18 months old.
Kelly, from West Bromwich, said: "It has been amazing day. The support this year has been overwhelming. It gets bigger and bigger every year.
"It has escalated. It started off the first year with a little cake bake stall and a couple of other little things.
"I want to say a massive thanks to my friends and family, I couldn't put it on without them, and also to the Gough Arms. There is new management this year and they had no idea who I was so I appreciate all the help from them."
Kelly added: "We do it to say thank you to the hospital. Cruze is fine but they need to check up on him and keep and extra eye on him."
