The second Blackburn Cathedral Appeal 100 Club Salon Prive took place recently at Browsholme Hall, where owners of 31 classic cars, and guests, chatted about the virtues of each car on display.
The event also included a tour of the magnificent 600 years old Hall and canapes and prosecco on the Terrace, before a fine lunch in the convivial atmosphere of the adjoining Tithe Barn.
Commented organiser, Peter Whitman: “It was another excellent event in the 100 Club’s Arts, Music, Heritage and Culture programme, to raise money to further the work of the Music Outreach project, “Sing Together”, run by the Cathedral.
“During the past 10 years, over 150 different primary schools have taken part and approximately 20,000 children have benefitted from the scheme, which brings the joy of singing and the exhilaration of performance to many who will never have experienced it before. The project needs to be supported to continue to do its great work in schools of any, or no denomination, in all areas of Lancashire.
“The Appeal also aims to fund work to be done in the Crypt of the Cathedral to make it more accessible to the community of Lancashire.”
