Punters are invited to play darts for an important cause.

The Harrington Arms in Bosley is gearing up to host another charity darts tournament.

 It follows the success of their previous competition in March 2024, which raised £1,200 for Prostate Cancer UK.

Steven Machin, who has been landlord for almost a decade now, said: "It gets everyone together for a good laugh and a social.

"Last time was a great day full of generosity from locals and the general public alike, plus the help from businesses who donated raffle prizes."

Supporting Steven in organising this year's tournament is barman Olly Platt.

It will help raise money for Mind, Body & Sole, a Congleton-based not-for-profit organisation that offers support and raises awareness for mental health and suicide prevention.

Steven said: "Darts is a perfect sport to get people out and socialising which is perfectly combined with our chosen mental health organisation.

"We would obviously love to reach £2,000-plus raised this time but we also understand things are even harder nowadays, so anything raised I would class as a bonus."

The Harrington Arms' charity darts tournament takes place on Saturday, February 28.

Players of any age (preferably over 16) and any ability can get involved
