COLLEGE students raised £444 for cancer patients by packing bags for shoppers.
Students from the intermediate GNVQ health and social care course at Bishop Auckland College packed bags at the town's Asda store and held raffles in the college to support the Imperial Cancer Research Fund.
The charity's area fundraiser, Lindsay Day, accepted a cheque from the students and spoke to the group about her work.
Course tutor Suzanne Schofield said: "The students worked very hard to raise the money and they would like to thank all the shoppers in Asda for their generosity.
