An Indian restaurant has donated £17,000 to charity to mark its 45th anniversary.
Paradise in South End Road, South End Green, raised the money by hosting a charity auction last month, with lots including the chance to develop a signature dish with the restaurant’s chef.
The cash will be split between two good causes – the Royal Free Charity and bone marrow cancer charity Myeloma UK.
Hampstead-based pop stars Nicole and Natalie Appleton, from the girl group All Saints, joined a cheque presentation event on Tuesday.
Owner Wasel Ali said: “We have a long association with the Royal Free Hospital, including my son being born there, so we wanted them to benefit.
