A large cheque has been handed over to Jersey Hospice Care, following the island's first Christmas Tractor Run.

On 14 December, a parade of 50 festively lit tractors travelled around Jersey, covering 30 miles and visiting 10 parishes.

The island's inaugural tractor run proved popular with spectators and donors.

The final amount raised was £10,501.89, which has been handed over to Jersey Hospice Care, helping it provide free specialist palliative care to islanders.
