BIG-hearted bridge players have raised money to help dementia sufferers.

The Fort Matilda Bridge Club handed over a cheque of £1,200 to Alzheimer Scotland.

The charity helps local sufferers at the Inverclyde Dementia Resource Centre in Nicol Street in Greenock as it has 102 places for people with dementia and provides day care services, as well as an evening care service for men and a dementia advisor.

Members of the bridge club raised the money after holding a charity week which included a raffle.
