In addition to the fete, a raffle was held in memory of George Smith who sadly died at the age of 11 last November of an Asthma attack.
In all, £618 was raised for Asthma UK and the Friends of Hagworthingham would like to thank everyone who bought tickets and donated gifts.
A spokesman said: “ We could not have done this without your support and hopefully we have helped to raise awareness of this condition.
“We are currently organising a presentation afternoon to present the cheque to Asthma UK.
