PUPILS at Arnold School, Blackpool, have raised a noteworthy £1,500 for the Blackburn Cathedral Organ Appeal.
Around 100 junior and senior school pupils put on a summer concert in the cathedral, supported by local businesses.
Arnold music teacher Lindsey Cooper, who organised the event, said: "I'm a member of the congregation at the cathedral, and both the main choir and the girls' choir have sung evensong there over quite a few years, so we felt we wanted to put something back into the cathedral." She said repair work had already begun on the organ.
