Donation to Desborough's Marlow House following closure of dance club

Funds left following the closure of a dance club have been presented to a community day centre in Desborough.

Sandra and Roy Rance recently presented a cheque for £1,500 to Vic Cosgrove, a trustee of Marlow House in Desborough and Kirsty Youngman, the centre manager.

Welland Park Dance club in Market Harborough, which had been in existence for many years, has closed and the remaining funds were divided between the committee members to donate to their chosen charity.

Mary McKay, the leader of the group who has lived in Desborough all her life, gave her share to Marlow House along with Sandra and Roy.
