A DRAMA group has been given a cash boost to help with one of its future productions.
Customers and staff at Margot's Hair Salon, in Church Street, Shildon, held raffles and other events to raise money for Centre Stage.
Salon manager Thelma Cook and her staff went along to the Shildon drama group's rehearsals at the Civic Centre to present £100 and a stage dress to members.
Ms Cook said: "We do about three raffles every year for different causes and we have very generous customers. We always choose a local cause and we would like to wish Centre Stage every success for the future.''
Donna Timmiss, from Centre Stage, said the money would be used for the group's production of The Railway Children, to coincide with the launch of the town's railway museum
