The Horley Singers' recent concert in aid of Horley mayor Richard Olliver's three adopted charities raised more than £550 for the causes.

The concert at St Bartholomew's Church, Horley, saw the choir, under conductor Richard Cartmale, joined by The Messenger Ensemble and soloists.

It raised funds for St John Ambulance, St Catherine's Hospice in Crawley and the Brambles Respite Care Centre for people with Multiple Sclerosis, in Horley.

Coun Olliver said: “I am so pleased that it was such a success and I am delighted that we are able to support my three local charities. “I know all the guests enjoyed their evening immensely and I thank them all for attending."
