AN evening of rock is set to raise funds for charity in Runcorn later this week.

The Brindley will host Rock for Heroes from 7.30pm on Thursday, October 18.

A full live rock band will be performing music from artists such as the Dire Straits, Status Quo, Queen, David Bowie, Madonna, Spandau Ballet, Bryan Adams, Elton John and Simple Minds.

Rock for Heroes is a fundraiser for Help for Heroes, with the tour having raised more than £10,000 for the armed forces veterans charity since it began in February.

Tickets are priced at £20, and are available from thebrindley.org.uk or by calling 0151 9078360.
