A lawn mower racing meeting at Kirkham raised £430 to aid those affected by the war in Ukraine.

The meeting of the North West Lawn Mower Racing Association was at Sunfield Farm, off Freckleton Road and involved dozens of Association members on a variety of machines.

Lawn mower racing was devised as a less expensive alternative to motor racing almost 50 years ago and there was a good turnout of spectators who were invited to contribute to the fund-raising.

Organiser Stuart Polkinghorne said: “Thanks to everyone who came along.”
