FRIENDS and family of a 24-year-old woman killed by a rare lung condition held a curry night to raised £740 for charity in her name.

Calvin and Debbie Clarke, aged 54 and 51, of Philip Avenue, Swanley, lost their daughter Lucy on April 7 last year after her two year battle with pulmonary hypertension.

Alongside around 60 family and friends they had a meal at The Clove Tandoori Restaurant in Station Road, Swanley, on Thursday (April 23), with all proceeds the restaurant took going to the Pulmonary Hypertension Association (PHA).

The charity supports people with the condition, and Lucy’s friends and family have raised almost £20,000 for it since her death.

Calvin said: “The evening was a great success, and we were glad to do it for PHA and because it is what Lucy would have wanted.”

A fundraising concert for PHA will be held on July 10 at Dartford Cricket Club, Pilgrims Way, Dartford at 7.30pm.

For more information call Calvin and Debbie on 01322 666414.
