A GROUP of singers have donated £300 to charity as they ready themselves for their next performance.

Darlington's The Richardson Singers donated the cash to the Great North Air Ambulance Service after raising the money at a concert in the Dolphin Centre over the summer.

The group hold two such events a year and tonight will perform its Christmas concert at St James the Great church at Albert Hill in Darlington.

The show starts on Friday December 19 at 7:30pm. Tickets are £5, from 01325-465980, any choir member, or on the door.
