A TALENTED singer is to give a boost to the Hambleton Citizens Advice Bureau.

Soprano Diane Peacock, from Romanby, will perform a programme of music at St Oswald's Church, Sowerby, near Thirsk, on Saturday, September 28, at 7.30pm.

She pledged to help the bureau, which is based in Northallerton, in its efforts to raise funds after attending the opening of the new building in April.

Organisers are hoping for large public support for the concert, which will include works by Schubert, Fauve, Rachmaninov and Richard Rogers.

Tickets cost £5 and are available from Fox's Copy Shop, Market Place, Thirsk, and from Greensleeves, Central Arcade, Northallerton.
