Film lovers from Whitehaven can now enjoy movie events following the presentation of a new projector.

Mirehouse Residents' Group's activity and skills sessions has received a welcome boost from the Sellafield Snowball Fund which has funded the equipment.

As well as showing movies, the new projector is also helping older members of the community learn how to use the internet and develop their IT skills.

Roger Wynne, residents' group chairman, said: "We are very grateful for the support from the Snowball Fund committee.

"The projector will be used in various activities with residents of all ages.''
