A hotel is hosting events to help fund more life-saving defibrillators in the town.

The Weatherbury Hotel in Weymouth is holding a charity weekend for Carry on Beating.  The three-day fundraising event will raise money for the Carry on Beating 3 campaign that hopes to bring more defibrillators to Weymouth venues. 

The weekend begins on Friday, June 7 with a darts competition throughout the night. Then, on Saturday, karaoke and pub games follow an afternoon pool contest. 

On Sunday night, event sponsors Circus of Thieves will play a three-hour set alongside a meat raffle for which all money will go to Carry on Beating. 

Rick Cleverly, the event organiser, said: “All the people who have sponsored us are local legends in their own right, and I cannot fault them.”

“Once we’ve flooded the town with defibs, then we’ll move to raising money for charities so we can help the community grow.”
