Charity concert is huge success for Cancer Research UK
The concert’s aim was to raise £2000 for Cancer Research UK but more than double that amount was raised.
David Lindfield, organiser, said: “The event was a huge success, a complete sell out with more than 450 people attending. We raised more than £4,400 for Cancer Research UK.

The soul band reunited after a ten-year break for a one-off appearance in support of the charity.
David added: “The line-up includes the vast majority of the bands original members, several of which have regularly played with the likes of Madness, Franz Ferdinand, The Lee Thompson Ska Orchestra and The Hot Knives.”
MOD-n-SOUL DJ’s Steve Bowden and Mark Foxon also featured at the concert, playing vinyl records for the audience.
