The Harpenden Town Mayor will be hosting a Burns Night in aid of her nominated charities on Friday, January 23.

The event, organised by Councillor Mary Maynard, will support Community Meeting Point Harpenden and Home-Start St Albans City and District at Aldwickbury Park Golf Club.

She said: "It should be good fun, with a piper playing traditional Scottish music as guests arrive, a Burn's night meal and of course, Scottish Country dancing, with a caller to tell the beginners what to do."

Tickets are available from the Town Hall Information Point in Leyton Road. For further details contact Linda Haynes, Mayor's Secretary on 01582 463662.
