A cheque for £917 was handed over to the Children’s Hospice South West’s Little Harbour facility by members of the Truro Choral Society.
The money is the result of a retiring collection at last month's Messiah concert given by the society in Truro Cathedral.
Mary Murfin, community fundraiser for CHSW, said: “What an incredible amount of money donated in about ten minutes as the audience left the cathedral. We are so grateful and thank you so much for helping us to make the most of the short and precious lives of the children in our community.”
