Every year the Camborne & Redruth Lions Club join forces with Big Sue’s, Camborne Mixed Darts League for a darts marathon to raise money for a local good cause.

This year’s charity was the Dreadnought Centre in Redruth. The charity work with children and young people to help them overcome a variety of issues.

The darts marathon involves a number of teams competing against each other  in order to score as many doubles as they can. Each team gains sponsorship for the event with the winners getting a trophy as do the team that raises the most money.

The total money raised this year was £1,560
