Prestigious Moments

Jane says: It was such a pleasure to sing for Dame Mary Berry when National Trust were holding a World Record attempt for knitted bunting, and a privilege to sing live on BBC Radio 5 Live for a special VE Day commemoration hosted by Adrian Chiles. And last but by no means least, it was, of course, a huge honour to sing for the late Squadron Leader George 'Johnny' Johnson at a Dambusters evening under the wings of Concorde.

Read What They Say!

Lancashire Belle was amazing. It was great to have her perform for our VE80 celebrations, and the feedback we received from visitors was lovely, with so many people identifying Jane as a highlight!
