The next bingo session to raise money for the Rishton Festival committee will take place on Saturday 20th July at 2.00pm in The People's Centre on School Street.
Cllr Clare Cleary said, "The bingo afternoons are a great way for us to raise money because it's easy for us to put on, Christine Hammerton is a wonderful baker and it really draws people together. The regular players look forward to it now and everyone has a good time, plus we seem to have a few new faces each month."
Regular monthly bingo sessions have been run for some time now and have contributed a substantial part of the money required to pay for the administration, insurances and other costs of setting up the Rishton Festival each year.
The cost is £5.00 for six games of bingo and £1.00 for a brew and a fresh cream cake at half time. All residents are welcome to come along and play.
