At a Wigan church for a night of celebration TALL hats and the British flag was flying all over.

Bethel Independent Methodist Church, in Hindley was a venue where Last Night of The Proms take place and we saw a masterpiece of music and song was bursting through the walls.

The orchestral evening included sounds from the organ, violins and the sailor’s hornpipe, playing classics including Dambusters, Britannia, Land of Hope and Glory and Jerusalem.

There was also an Act of Remembrance for fallen soldiers.

Brian Mills, church member, said: “We had quite a good mixture and it was a roaring success – the church was absolutely full.

“We did a short remembrance service and some moving solos from Ron Machin and Maurice Monk.

“We had some amusing costumes and the hats just got bigger and bigger as the night went on.”

Members raised £1,250 for church funds.
