Earlier this year Leighton Linslade Helpers, a charity group offering support to the local community approached Leighton Buzzard Canoe Club to see if they could assist with their fundraising for the year.

The club agreed to donate a percentage of the income from the race they held in June, and this week club chairman Nigel Dixon proudly presented the charity with a cheque for £250.

To find out more about the charity, and the support they offer have a look at their website, www.leightonlinsladehelpers.org.uk.

If you're interested in trying canoeing or kayaking, details of the year's remaining courses can be found on their website, www.lbcc.org.uk
