Community Gala will celebrate local woman's life

ORGANISERS of the Marston Green Community Gala have said this weekend's event will be a joyous tribute to a much-missed member of the local community.
There will be stalls, a tombola, bouncy castle, BBQ and whole host of traditional games at St Leonard's Church. 
Live entertainment will be provided by groups including Penelope's Dance Studio (pictured right) and members of the 1st Marston Green Scout Group - who are co-ordinating the event.
Organisers have said the gala will be a celebration of the life of one of the village's best-known residents, Anne Dunkley.
The former teacher, who had a long association with the scout and guiding movement, had been killed in a disturbance at her home in June this year.
A 24-year-old man has been charged with her murder.
St Leonard's said that it promised to be a very busy afternoon and encouraged local people to bring their friends and families along to the event.
The gala will be held on Saturday (September 5), from 1-4pm.
