Night helping amputee Sam bid for her bionic hand
Tickets have sold well for an entertainment night in Shrewsbury in aid of helping an amputee to get a bionic hand.
Samantha Gibson, 48, suffered nerve damage resulting in her losing her right hand.
Tonight Shrewsbury Severnside Lions Scooter Club will put on a fundraising bash at the Lord Hill Hotel, in Abbey Foregate, at 7.30pm to help her make a final push towards the £10,000 target.
The appeal has so far raised about £8,000.
Pop tribute band Marquis Drive, from Cannock, and DJ Russ Reeves will entertain.
"It's all systems go and we're all ready to have a good night. We have tickets on the door," the Telford mother says.
Tickets cost £10 and will be available on the door or on 07866 613844.

Appeal activities have included her brother Simon Rickers organising a sponsored head shave, a fun day and a raffle draw.
