BOSSES at Burnley and Pendle Multi-Racial Playbus Association are celebrating after they were given £7,000 from the Community Foundation for Merseyside.

The money will be used to provide sessions for pre-school children in Stoneyholme, Burnley. It will be held on Burleigh Street every week in term-time.

Carol Hopkins, playbus leader, said: "We are delighted to be able to bing the playbus to this part of Burnley and we are very grateful for the support provided by the community foundation."

The Community Foundation for Merseyside was set up in 2004 to give grants to voluntary and community groups.
