Pupils from a Muslim Girls' school have raised over £200 for a Hospice.

Pupils from the Islamiyah Girls School raised the money in the hope of making a difference to patients.

In total they raised £214.50 for the East Lancashire Hospice.

Mr Seedat, headteacher of the school said, "The girls are helping to support their local community and the involvement they have may also lead to volunteering for the hospice. We will repeat our fundraising again next year for this important charity."
