A BASINGSTOKE band busked at a shopping centre to raise money for Naomi House Children’s Hospice’s Caterpillar Appeal.

B Yellow played for four hours at Chineham Shopping Centre bandstand, and raised £750 for the appeal, which will use the funds to transform the hospice, in Sutton Scotney.

The money raised by the buskers is being doubled to £1,500 thanks to a donation by Microsoft.
