ASTLEY Youth Band raised the roof at Atherton St Richard's Club with a charity concert which realised £350 to help send handicapped children to Lourdes.
The Handicapped Children's Pilgrimage Trust event was organised by Hubert and Anne Ward in memory of their daughter Elizabeth.
Their next performances are March 15 at Bedford Methodist Church, Ramsbottom Music Festival on March 23 and Kearsley Mount Church on March 29. Anyone interested in joining the band, particularly trombone and tuba players, should contact Helen Minshall on 01942 875626 or Debbie Broadhurst on 0161 799 3391.
