Times and Independent series group editor Martin Buhagiar visited North London Hospice on Friday to draw the winning tickets for its grand raffle.

More than 22,000 people entered with three prizes of £1,000, £250 and £100 up for grabs.

All money raised will be used by the hospice.

Martin selected ticket numbers 212620 (first prize); 270607 (second prize) and 054630 (third prize).

Anita Brien, community fundraiser, said: "I have called the three winners who are all delighted with their prizes."

Martin added: "It was lovely to be able to chat with some of the day care patients and see the incredible work that staff and volunteers are doing at the hospice."

North London Hospice is a charity that provides free specialist end-of-life care for the London boroughs of Barnet, Enfield and Haringey. All services are provided free of charge.
