A high-profile Anglia TV presenter and watercolour artist will talk about his work and give a painting demonstration as part of an evening in support of a major cancer charity.

Ian King has been invited to the George Hotel in Swaffham to paint a picture which will be auctioned off on the night in support of Macmillan Cancer Support.

The event is one in a series of activities organised by Richard Horn, a local resident, who has already raised £6,500 for the organisation over the last 14 months.

Mr Horn said: “Initially I set the target at £5,000, but now I am determined to bring it up to £7,500. People with a keen interest in art and watercolour will have a delightful evening.”

The event on Friday, April 11 at 7.30pm will also include a raffle and bar.

Tickets cost £6.50.
