STAFF and customers at a supermarket have ben fundraising for a carnival that is due to take place later this month.
Artists Brian Goodfellow and Shirley Wells received a cheque for £120 from Marie Steward and Paul Robinson, at the Sainsbury’s store, in Darlington, on Friday.
The money will be used to buy materials for art workshops that are being held in the run-up to the 30th Darlington Community Carnival, which will be held in Stanhope Park on Saturday, June 30.
Artists are making models on an Olympian theme for the event.
:: The organisers of the carnival are holding a quiz night on Saturday, at 7pm, in Willow Road Community Centre.
There will be a raffle and spot prizes. Tickets cost £2 for adults and 50p for children.
