In pictures: Lynsey Courtney Foundation cervical cancer research fundraising tea party in Portadown

A special event has raised vital funds for the Lynsey Courtney Foundation, set up in memory of a Portadown mum who passed away from cervical cancer following a misread smear test.

Lynsey's Tea Party, held in Fergus Hall on Friday and Saturday morning, proved a great way for family, friends and supporters to get together for some tasty treats and raise funds for this worthy cause at the same time.

Lynsey, a mother-of-one and a teaching assistant at Craigavon Senior High School, was just 30 years old when she passed away in September 2018.

The charity set up in her memory aims to raise funds for research at Queen's University Belfast to help reduce the number of women being diagnosed with cervical cancer in Northern Ireland.

Tony Hendron dropped in on Saturday morning and took these lovely photos of some of those who supported the fundraiser.
