A CHARITY night raised £2,075 to help restore a church.

Westgate Baptist Church, in Carlisle Road, Manningham, held a gospel concert and meal on March 14.

Brenda Naylor, from the church, said: “This was a splendid and enjoyable evening which raised a substantial sum of money, which will be used for essential repairs and continuing maintenance of the building, bringing it back to its original glory."

“May we take this opportunity to thank the Celebration Choir, the people who worked behind the scenes and all who came along to give support and make the evening the success it was.”
