The Norwich support group of the Freedom from Torture charity is hosting the Gaelic social gathering of ceilidh on Saturday, February 25.

Live band, The Red Herrings, will be joined by Alan Helsdon, who will act as caller for the evening to guide guests through the dances so that even novices can join in.

The event is being held at the Trinity United Reformed Church's hall, on Unthank Road, to raise money for the Freedom from Torture charity.

Doors will open for the event at 7.15pm, to start at 7.30pm, costing �5 per person, with a bar and snacks available.

The Norwich Group have held a host of successful events over the years, including ceilidhs and its annual Bishop's Garden Party, which last year raised over �800.
