Katie Morris, aged 26, of Orchard Street, Mansfield, said she wanted to raise funds for her Aunt who has stage 4 cancer in her pelvis, so she can "enjoy the time she has left".

Katie said: "We don't know how long she has left, she refused to find out, she just wants to enjoy the time she has left.
"She is a a grandmother and her youngest child is 14-years-old - everyone is really young.
"She is just amazing - she has always been very supportive.

The fun day was held at The Sunnydale Inn on Brown Avenue, Mansfield Woodhouse, where there was raffles and games.
And, £1551 was raised.
Katie said: "I had it in my head that I wanted to raise enough to send them away for a week - I had no idea it would be that much.
"It was really busy we are a big family anyway but a lot of people passing by came it - there was huge support."
