Their latest raffle, held last Saturday (14) at Maltby Leisure Centre, raised £234 and took their total fundraising to £1,120.
George (60), of Wickersley, said: “I’m absolutely over the moon with our latest total.
“We have had fantastic support.”
Among the prizes were vouchers from Maltby Leisure Centre worth around £70.
George said he was planning another raffle to raise money for both the Brain Tumour Charity and Rotherham Hospice.
