NEARLY £4,000 was raised by a grand gala concert at York’s Joseph Rowntree Theatre.
Students from the city’s Margaret Berg School of Music took to the stage in aid of St Leonard’s Hospice. The young performers, aged between eight and 17, entertained the audience with songs and medleys from well-known musicals.
Sarah Atkinson, Community Fundraiser at the hospice, said: “This is a fantastic result from a great night of music. We are very grateful to everyone involved.”
