A reunion is being held for Richmond School's class of 1972 to 1977.

Past pupils and teachers are invited to the event at Whitehaven Golf Club on September 30 from 7.30pm.

The evening, which includes a buffet, is being organised by Whitehaven man, Mark Shackley, to mark the 40th anniversary of the class leaving school.

He said: "I've been advertising on a few local sites over the last 18 months and I've been in touch with quite a few of the old class mates."

Mark says he would like anyone interested in attending the event to contact him at markshacks@aol.com.
