A BAND has struck-up support for Manorlands.

Phoenix Concert Band staged a concert in support of the Oxenhope Sue Ryder hospice's Mother's Day Appeal.

The event, at St Margaret's Church in Ilkley, raised £278.

Band members, supported by volunteers, also baked cakes and other goodies to sell at the interval.

The Leeds-based outfit has presented a cheque to Manorlands fundraising assistant, Sarah Harrison, who thanked members for their efforts.

"Without the help of people planning their own fundraisers and taking part in events we simply couldn't provide our incredible care and make the difference we do in the local community," she added.

The band will return to St Margaret's on March 18 next year for another concert.
