The Allenheads Heritage Trust is organising a fundraising event to acquire a music licence for the Trust's Heritage Centre and Cafe on Saturday, April 27 at Sinderhope Community Hall.
A music licence will enable the Trust to organise events at the Heritage Centre and the Cafe.
The Celia Bryce Band will perform at the event. Celia is a published author and amongst other projects, was commissioned by Hexham to write a song about the town which received critical acclaim.

The song, named Hexham Tan, is about the glove industry and appears on the album Links.
The Allenheads Heritage Trust manages the Heritage centre, art workshop, displays and cafe in the village for residents and tourists. Other exhibits include an original blacksmith shop and a water-powered Armstrong Pump from the 19th century.
The exhibits are open all year. The Trust is a charitable organisation run by volunteers and with the help of villagers, the Centre has been redecorated.
Various events will be held at the Centre and the Hemmel Cafe in the village, which has reopened under new management.
Tickets are available from Allendale Co-op, Allendale Heritage Trust members or on the door.
