RADCLIFFE Civic Suite will be filled with the sound of jazz when musicians from the borough's twin town make a visit.

The 27-strong Jazz Ensemble de Tulle will perform a concert at 8pm on April 3 in the suite.

It is just one of many events planned during the visit by 54 people from Tulle in south west France who will be guests of the borough from April 2 to 7.

The Mayor of Bury, Councillor Paul Nesbit, will welcome them in an official reception in Bury Town Hall and during their stay with host families they will be going on trips to such places as The Lowry and Liverpool's Beatles Museum.

And don't worry if you don't catch the jazz band in Radcliffe as they will also be performing at Ramsbottom Civic Hall at 7pm on April 4 and in the Mill Gate Centre between 10am and 12 noon on April 6.

The visit will conclude with a farewell dinner at Castlebrook High School on April 6 with MEP Gary Titley as the guest of the Bury Community Twinning Association.
