Hundreds of pounds have been raised for Welwyn Garden City-based Isabel Hospice, thanks to a glitzy casino night at Stevenage's Tranquil Turtle restaurant.
Hoping to win big, attendees gathered at the Symonds Green venue to try their luck - while raising vital funds for the hospice.
Owner Bradley Kelly said: "Charities are suffering at the moment - with the cost of living, people are less able to give.
"Although we hoped to raise more, we did raise £360 for a vital local charity."

The company has also recently partnered with The East and North Herts Hospitals' Charity - which supports Stevenage's Lister Hospital and The New QEII in Welwyn Garden City.
As part of the partnership, Tranquil Turtle - recently under new management - will host family fun days and other fundraising events throughout the year with all proceeds going to the charity.
The first family fun day is scheduled for May 7.
