A SUPPORT group for people with multiple sclerosis had a “wonderful” time celebrating the coronation with an afternoon tea and raffle.

The Dumbarton and District MS group – which encompasses the Helensburgh and Lomond area – visited the Rosslea Hall Hotel in Rhu for their festivities on Saturday, May 6.

The day was enjoyed by all and helped raise funds for the group – with the raffle and tea making £134.
