REGULARS at the Three Pigeons pub in Blackburn have been helping to raise money for a Romanian orphanage.

Ada Smith, 65, of Stonyhurst Road, Blackburn, took part in a sponsored four mile walk in Blackpool to raise a further £250 to add to money that has already been collected for the charity.

A charity auction is also being held to raise even more cash for the fund, and organisers are calling on people to donate items for the sale.

The all day event will be held at the Oakenhurst Road pub from noon on Saturday.

There will be various activities and entertainments throughout the day to keep everybody occupied.

All donations will be collected by Janine Hart and she can be contacted on 01254 671910.
