A FUNDRAISING night for a teenagers' cancer unit in the city has raised close to £50,000.
Capital author Alexander McCall Smith entertained the audience with an after-dinner speech at the event for the Teenage Cancer Trust at the Royal College of Physicians.

He is pictured with a painting of Jolomo's Benbecula shoreline donated for the silent auction.
