THE boss of a friends group hailed an annual carol concert a roaring success.
The annual Carols in the Wood concert took place at the bandstand in Sunnyhurst Wood on Sunday, featuring performances from the Ashleigh Singers and Darwen Brass.
Dennis Gillibrand, chairman of the Friends of Sunnyhurst Wood, which organised the event, said: “It was a great success with about 700 people visiting the wood throughout the day. A collection raised £400 which will be used by the friends to make improvements to the park.
“I would like to thank the volunteers for providing refreshements and the public for their continued support.”
