A CHIROPRACTOR put his back into raising money for children at the weekend.

Carl Irwin, 38, of the Edgware and Mill Hill Chiropractic Clinic offered every patient a free check-up from his centre in Deans Lane, Edgware as part of a fundraising event which realised more than £500 for Children in Need last year.

For a £10 donation, Carl carried out a back health check including a postural, bio-mechanical and computer scan of the spine. "I had a good response last year and we wanted to do it again to help," he said.
