STUDENTS are doing their bit to help sell Burnley to the outside world.
Youngsters from Ivy Bank High School in the town have produced corporate brochures for Burnley to highlight the benefits to business of locating in the area.
The prospectuses have now been presented to the Economic Development Unit at Burnley Council.
"The unit was putting together a new campaign to encourage inward investment and thought this would be a great opportunity to get input from the generation that will be depending on its success" said Andrew Heyworth, Initiative Burnley's executive director.
"Ivy Bank High School has an excellent record for winning the support and involvement of local businesses."
More than 40 pupils took part in the project and Russell Tebbutt presented the best with prizes on behalf of the economic development unit.
