RECORDED highlights of a sell-out gig in aid of The Press's Guardian Angels appeal will go on sale today to raise more money. The DVD will be launched at Acomb Music, in Front Street, York, where singer Ruby Paul will give a live performance just after 1pm. She will be joined by the talented teenager Natasha Merritt, who also sang at the charity concert. Both artists signed copies of the DVD for customers.
All profits from the DVD will go to our Guardian Angels appeal, which aims to raise £300,000 to fund a new high dependency unit for children at York Hospital. Acomb Music is offering a ten per cent discount on all its stock for customers who bought one of the Guardian Angels' DVDs. They cost £10 from the shop, or £11.50 (including postage and packaging) by logging on to www.rubypaul.com The concert took place at the Basement Bar, City Screen, earlier this month and more than 100 people attended to pledge their support and enjoy the music. Making it to the rostrum was Natasha, a pupil at Huntington School and Bethan, a classically trained singer from Bootham School, was runner-up. The three singers joined each other on stage to sing the fittingly titled song, Opportunity, which was also composed by Ruby.
