IT is a time to remember and restore our links with people and places that remain warm in our hearts.

For those with Darwen associations, the church of St Cuthbert's in Blackburn Road is a landmark well known to residents and those more distant at this time.

The sound of their choir at Christmas is now captured on a brand new CD 'Carols for Candlelight.'

So if anyone would like to recapture the pleasure such music brings, or send this Christmas message to friends of Darwen in more distant places, now is the time and the opportunity.

Copies are available from the church at services or by contacting Steve Byron on 01254 600892.
