Cowling is staging a community dance.

The event – at the village hall on August 31, from 8pm to midnight – will feature music, spanning the 1960s to the 1980s by live band Silhouette. Tickets are £6, with proceeds split between Cowling’s cricket and football clubs, the recreation ground and village hall. There will be a licensed bar, raffle and – for £2 – a pie and peas supper. Raffle prizes welcome at Cowling chip shop, where tickets are available, or call 07810 523296.
