A RAFFLE at a Masonic lodge has gone swimmingly - raising more cash than any other raffle in its history.
The Francis Drake of York Lodge, Castlegate, raised more than £400 for the New Earswick Disabled Swimming Club.
Worshipful master Malcolm Farrow said: "The main part of Masonry is donating to charity. Every year we have a ladies' night raffle at the lodge. As wife of the lodge master, my wife chose the group we would donate to.
Mr Farrow's wife, Janet, is a member of the club.
She said: "When you come out of the pool you just feel so much better."
