ARMY medics have raised more than £400 for Butterwick House Children's Hospice while serving in Iraq.
Members of the 34 Field Hospital Unit, which is based in York, collected the money by raffling a signed Six Nations rugby shirt.
Four of the group presented the cheque to hospice founder Mary Butterwick yesterday.
Jackie Leighton, of the hospice, based in Stockton, said: "They are hoping to raise some more money for us and, hopefully, they will come back to visit from time to time."
