Whitton Friends of The Shooting Star Children's Hospice hosted a lunchtime New Orleans jazz session at The Winning Post in Twickenham on Thursday 30 July.

Colin Kingwell's Jazz Bandits entertained the audience to a livley session and many people took to the dance floor to practise their jiving skills.

Over £500 was raised for the hospice in Hampton and future similar events are planned in August, October and November when different bands will play this style of jazz.
